EasyMotion Alternatives
EasyMotion is described as 'provides a much simpler way to use some motions in vim. It takes the <number> out of <number>w or <number>f{char} by highlighting all possible choices and allowing you to press one key to jump directly to the target' and is an app. There are four alternatives to EasyMotion for a variety of platforms, including BSD, Linux, Mac, Vim and Windows. The best alternative is Hop, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like EasyMotion are Quick-scope, Vim Sneak and Vim9 Stargate.

You can think of stargate as simplified modern alternative to easymotion for vim 8.2+. It uses popups windows to show hints, so it will not modify the content of your buffer and because of that linter plugins will not get mad.
