We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

You can also type
:x
to write and quit. Just imaging the amount of time saved not pressing one extra letter. ^Could save your life.^:x
for write and quit. But I think the more appropriate one in this situation will be:q!
which will force quit without saving any modifications, since someone who doesn't know how to exitvim
probably doesn't want to save whatever modifications they made (probably by mistake).Good catch!
