That meme clearly comes from an emacs fanboy.
emacs
I actually don’t know what emacs means. I only remember having struggles in understanding anyone who likes vim, because it mostly just confused me. But Probably its just what you are used to. The Meme is still funny, though.
Don’t discount the possibility that some people that use vim, are old enough to remember using vi, over a modem connection. When you know the keyboard shortcuts it can be a lot quicker too even now.
Vi is incredibly snappy when it came to commands.
Want to save? :w
Want to quit? :q
Want to save and quit? :wq
Very elegant. GUI WYSIWYG doesn’t come close when it comes to commands.
Man, this comment made me feel a little embarrassed at myself. I saw the shortcuts and thought about how I have a tradition of going to the top of the file when I’m done editing and about to save/quit. I always hit the shortcut for it and think “gg boys! Good game” and then quit out of vim.
Stop judging me.
:q! this meme, man
You forgot to his escape twice first. You’re in insert mode sir.
Real nerds use Ctrl [ instead so they don’t leave home row.
The editor so good people never learn to leave it.
Take my angry upvote
Neovim is awesome
My entire first year as a network student was a Bernie meme: “i am once again asking, how do i exit vim?”
I litterally LOL’d! :D
I legit code in nano.
I use Notepad via Wine.
$ alias vim='timeout 600 vim'
vim is so last year. have you people heard of GitHub’s new ‘Atom’ IDE? I think it’ll be the next big thing 😊
Vim keys in vscode for the win, I’m dead serious
An IDE written in Electron?? What a terrible idea! Nobody would ever be stupid enough to let something like that take off…
Out of curiosity, I wondered what the original meme was. Found them and thought I’d share them:
