This is the best vim meme I’ve ever seen. I’m dead
RIP Bram Moolenaar
M-% vim RET emacs RET
100% agree. Emacs macros take much more space.
…but we have org-mode so we can take notes about things like friends and family.
I felt a pang of regret in reading this - about the grain of truth for it in my life.
I’ve filed that pang of regret in an appropriate text file for consideration later.
unfortunately no Jason mode :p
Vim/Neovim has orgmode too, these days 🤪
May I introduce you to Neovim? It has Lua. Learn Lua now.

Learn Lua on Hawaii just to configure your editor! Join the group!
I know Lua. Lua is why I won’t use neovim.
It’s not so Bad if you don’t develope plugins. And vimscript is still there
Or I can use actual Vim (RIP Bram) and have new vimscript, and no Lua.
I love Lua. Can I do anything useful with it?
I don’t know a language. Some sort of decision freeze. I’ve tried Lua, C#, Linux BASH, and Java. I went from learning C# to homelabbing proxmox. I have more success learning IT stuff.
Also I haven’t used Vim or Emacs, but I used to rebind ALL of my keys in every game I played. I deeply love keybinding and using the keyboard rather than the mouse.
i like my arrays starting from 0 thank you
I like my arrays iterable, that’s all I need to know. No matter if the index is 0, 1, ‘foo’, or a serialized array (oh wait, no, that’s PHP).
That’s not an array, that’s a string.
Someone is converting an array to a string and is using that as key.A lot of languages could do it, and none of them should.
You must be fun at parties.
At LAN parties 😎😎
Every LAN party has at least one public FTP available that is called “my ass” and at least one person yells “Put that in my ass!”.
Vim keybindings aren’t memorization as much as they are muscle memory.
So true- I was talking to someone about vim the other day and wanted to tell them the keybinding for something I use daily, but had no idea what it was without a keyboard there for reference.
This feels like me, especially when I have six different splits in a full screen terminal screen between vim and tmux and someone asks how I’m doing that.
“How are you doing this?”
“Yes”
At times, I’ve also juggled (in addition to vim and tmux) hotkeys for my current tiling WM of choice and extra hotkeys to swap between machines via barrier. I’m not sure how I’m able remember what I had for breakfast, much less someone’s name.
I work primarily in tmux and even in an IT department, people regularly say something along the lines of “woah are you hacking?”

If I can get a dollar everytime I see this posted…
I don’t understand why you hate seeing the same meme twice. Also I don’t think I ever saw it on lemmy. I don’t think it’s a meme that’s reposted all over, because I haven’t seen it on Reddit either and only saw it for the first time when specifically searching for vim memes. If I see a meme more than once and it’s a good meme, I enjoy it. Why do you not do the same?
I laughed way too hard at this 😂
It’s only like that when you’ve learned them recently. Now I need to learn Rust. You also have to remember a ton of shortcuts in many GUI editors.
That’s why i like command pallets. Just fuzzy search the command, and if you do the action a lot bind a key combination.
Speaking of, can anyone recommend an AutoHotKey alternative for Linux on Wayland?
I juat use Plasma’s custom shortcuts, works really well.
There’s also autokey, similar to autohotkey but with Python. I haven’t had to use it for much but I didn’t have any issues when I used it for some RuneScape autogrinding
Thank you!
That meme’s been on the front page every day for the last week. Did karma farming bots make their way here?
There’s just not a lot of content lol
Not a don’t know how to exit vim joke? Refreshing!
I didn’t think that kind of joke would ever

JSON is the worst name to use in this comic since it fits right in there.
I prefer the version of this meme where he tries to
