If you have "Help" instead of "Ins", replace it with Overgod-tier. Keep pressing it, it will come.

OC, feel free to share.

EDIT; Home is now G-od tier. I didn't know it would go to the beginning of a line, I always used macros "lol".

Wait doesn't Shift + I just type "I"?

Only if you are in insert mode. If you are in normal mode, Shift-I moves to the beginning of the line and then enters insert mode.

That’s some arcane gobbledygook. I think you mean M-m

Esc-meta-alt-ctrl-shift + m

To kill the joke, they're talking about the popular and mode-based editor VIM where in normal mode each key on the keyboard does an action

Yeah when I searched for "insert-mode" from another comment, the next suggested result was "insert-mode vim" and "insert-mode visual studio" (which IIRC is just aping vim), plus it's /c/programmerhumor so I had a feeling that it would be vim shenanigans.
