• browse registers while inserting text with ctrl-r
• find the right register for yanked text
• inspect macro registers before replaying

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, zero-configuration vim plugin from a trusted author

When to avoid

• you don't use vim or neovim
• you rarely use registers or macros in your editing workflow
