On macOS you can do this using just the stock OS. It's under keyboard settings. You can also do this on iOS, it's awesome if you have a physical keyboard and like to use vim on your iPad

I don’t know what’s cooler. This setting in MacOS / iOS or having a dedicated foot pedal to press “i” or “esc”

You can do the simple remapping. The “tap for escape, hold for control” takes additional software.

Here's a summary on how to do it on the respective OS's https://gist.github.com/tanyuan/55bca522bf50363ae4573d4bdcf0...

It's an interesting concept. I have been using capslock as control for so long that I don't know I could get used to this though.

To be clear, that link shows how to use extra software to do it in each OS including Karabiner on macOS.
