      There is literally written that :q to exit!

        Wont work if you have unsaved edits or are in insert mode. Escape then :q! will.

          and when typing :q with unsaved edits it literally also says “add ! to override”

            True.

          Ooh, living life dangerously.

          I would not like to have that as a finger habit!

        People who have never had the pleasure of experiencing vim might not realize that the colon is a part of the command and will start recording a macro instead.

        I typed :q and it just says :q on the bottom, all this advice and I’m still stuck in vim. My electricity bill has been high since 2022 because of this heavy editor with no x button
