(See the top news item. I couldn’t link directly on mobile)
Thank you for all your work. I used Vim for more than 25 years
Edit: heres a nice article about the history of vi.

Brams last commit to vim was a few weeks before he passed.
Protip if you’re going to post to Lemmy from Mastodon: don’t put your hashtags at the top of your post. The first line of text gets converted into the post title. It looks like dogshit currently.
@bionicjoey oof. Didnt know, too late to fix 🙄
Thanks
This is what your post looks like btw on Sync. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Im also on lemmy, but looks like i cant edit the post from Lemmy 🙄
Looks like if i edit on mastodon, it updates on Lemmy. Hopefully it shows up correctly now. (Looks fine on jerboah for me now)
May his exit from this world, have been easier than exiting Vim.
May he rest in peace.
