Without this, using the mouse is faster at moving the text cursor than using arrow keys. Editing code feels either frustratingly sensitive or like dragging finger through honey
You can also press and hold Ctrl + arrow keys to move through words at once instead of each character, and of course you can combine this with what’s suggested here.

Hmm, do you use something like vim or emacs or an editor that allows similar keybinds?
(I suspect I just have a good enough repeat rate)
