Hi,
I did not find anything regarding this, so I ask here.
I want to re-map a key which is perfectly fine and possible with
:map <key1> <key2>
But if I restart Joplin, these mappings are all gone.
So my question is: Is there a way to make persistent changes to the Vim settings somewhere?
Thanks in advance

I also am wondering about this, I just want to remap a few keys in vim mode.
This isn’t the best workaround, but as someone with a large vimrc that I have come to depend on, I just always use the external editor. I can easily go side by side with joplin and vim and it will still live update. It isn’t the best solution, but afaik it is the only workaround for now.
I doubt vimrc support will be added to joplin, as I have heard it said before that the developers are not concerned with making joplin a robust text editor, and that is why the external editor support is so good.
Yeah, I use that. too. Just today I commented on another thread, that under these circumstances (having ones own full blown vim as external editor, and the internal one lacking all the features) I can’t see why there is an internal vim editor at all.
Gonna stick to the external one.
I'd also like to be able to do this. Something as simple as :map j gj can help when editing large paragraphs
Well now, as the external editor is broke, this would be a great feature 
Has anyone found a way to persistently map keys for vim mode in the desktop app? Thanks!
Professional editors should include it, but joplin is not...
This should be pretty easy to do with a plugin, similar to what Obsidian does (https://github.com/esm7/obsidian-vimrc-support/blob/master/main.ts; 99 SLOC).
