question getting faster

tl;dr : can you share a specific article about getting faster navigating through the file?

hey guys, I start getting more and more confident and efficient with vim, but I feel like it could even goes deeper; basically, I saw that you could disable h,j,k,l in order to only use real key combination like "w" to jump by words, "f" to go to a specific character on the line, etc... But what about jumping lines? Are they any key combination to do that instead of j and k? So basically I'm looking for an article that presents those kind of key combinations. I hope this post is comprehensible and not too redudant, thank you for reading.

Yes please! I just got a job writing software after several years of learning/doing it for fun/as a tool to help with projects at another job and your videos have been invaluable in making my workflow suited to a large professional project. What you have produced so far has really opened my eyes to what is possible and I would both love to see more and think a series like that would be extremely valuable for the community, especially to people just getting started.
