Apologies if discussed already, but any vim users here with experience on the new mac touch bar and the ESC key? I have ESC remapped to double “jj” but I still use it 50% of the time.

I used to use jk as escape also.

I currently use jk

https://csswizardry.com/2017/01/preparing-vim-for-apples-touch-bar/ this might be a little of interest.

You could do the only sane thing and switch to Linux 😉 on any laptop with an escape button

wow, they are basically suggesting to give up...

noremap <esc> <nop>

That is probably a good thing to add ^ to prepare for the end

There's also control-c

control-[

And ^j for the dark times when Apple takes out the enter key.

<C-c> master race reporting in

I always worry I will hit Ctrl-C too many times & kill Vim

In my head, Ctrl-C is literally a baseball bat.
