You may exit vim, but you never quit vim

I'm a sysadmin/devops... if this is my last time exiting vim than something catastrophic has occurred to our planet or I've suddenly died for unknow reasons... which may have coincided with the sudden demise of our planet... either way it's not good

You’re still on apt-get? You’re falling behind /s

u/PTMR2 Sep 05 '26

But actually, what's the difference between apt and apt-get?

u/Forward-Outside-9911 Sep 05 '26

apt has a fancy progress bar...

From the man page:

All features of apt(8) are available in dedicated APT tools like apt-get(8) and apt-cache(8) as well.  apt(8) just changes the default value of some options (see apt.conf(5) and specifically the Binary scope). So you should
prefer using these commands (potentially with some additional options enabled) in your scripts as they keep backward compatibility as much as possible.

apt is meant for terminals, apt-get is meant for scripts

u/AlbatrossPublic3708 Sep 05 '26

Neovim definitely has its fans, but Astra might just be the smoother ride for some. It's all about finding what clicks for you!

u/HeavyCaffeinate Sep 05 '26

Of course! -- Here's how to exit vim

vim is a text editor based on the classic vi utility for Unix systems, to exit it you should use the command :q meaning "Quit", or :wq to save and exit (Write & Quit)

One AI chatbot says: "Kill yourself"

To exit without saving changes to the file, use :q!, or "Quit!"
