I have the opposite situation, I had to willingly stop myself from typing :w while using Word. And I installed the vim extension in vscode, which leads to me typing :w when using someone else’s setup.
I just got moved to a new team, and my new team lead up arrow spams. I was about to tell him about ctrl-r, but he found his command, and I’m awkward, so I didn’t say anything. Maybe next time.
And you can hook in fzf to it to get a proper list of previous commands all fuzzy matched!! Oh-my-zsh just requires adding fzf to your plugins list (:
I survived for years with just https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions which is similarly great, but fills a slightly different role. Just start typing and you’ll see a faded preview of the most recent command matching & u ctrl+f to autocomplete it. Is gr8

:wa like a boss
:q!
Wait. Oh shit.
I’m sorry, I have to take your first answer.
Better hope you set undofile and undodir is writable.
:q! is for quicksave
They look so lonely. Why not make them kiss?

My muscle memory is too strong from years of vscode before vim so I have
:wmapped toC-sThis is Vim’s evil mode
Hissss we’re enemies

I still get lots of jkhl after some lines when I’m trying to move between lines
Question: why does nobody else save and exit with “:x” or “:x!”?
Lots of people don’t know. Just like ctrl+r to substring search your command history in bash.
ctrl+r to WHAT
IM SO FUCKING PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW
LOL. I had the same reaction when I found out a decade ago.
I just got moved to a new team, and my new team lead up arrow spams. I was about to tell him about ctrl-r, but he found his command, and I’m awkward, so I didn’t say anything. Maybe next time.
I seriously pity people who don’t know ctrl+r that is one of the most important tools for productivity on the cli.
I’ve found it’s a bit overrated honestly. Usually, I also need the commands before and after something, so I use
history | grep -B N cmdinsteadAnd you can hook in fzf to it to get a proper list of previous commands all fuzzy matched!! Oh-my-zsh just requires adding

e: clarified what zsh-autosuggest does
I guess by the time I came across
:x,:wqwas already too ingrained to bother switching.What am I, a farmer? /s
shift zzWhoa. I’ve been doing :wq for like 25 years and never new about :x.
No specific reason, but I’d rather be deep in the cold, cold ground before I quit with “:x” instead of “:wq”.
But… But :x is superior because it doesn’t overwrite unchanged files with a new modified date :(
It’s such an awkward letter to reach, also I’m stuck in my ways leave me alone
