Welcome to the Vim Hates Me show !

On today's episode : Vim -y is great : it's like nano but with vim's syntax's highlighting and notepad's sensible shortcuts, which is awesome... ... ... until you make the mistake of running it in the tty

👩‍🦰 Help I can't exit vim 😭
🤖 Press ESC for normal mode then type :wq
👩‍🦰 I can't use normal mode, I used "vim -y" so I'm locked in insert mode
🤖 It's Ctrl+Q to quit with vim -y
👩‍🦰 I know and it doesn't work... I don't know why, Ctrl+Q worked fine in "vim -y" until today 😭
