This kind of thing isn't really my jam (I bounce off whenever I hit a #Vim motion/command that doesn't work in game) but I'm also very not the target audience and I'm constantly seeing recommendations from other people for VIM Adventures, so I might be the outlier:

Renewed interest in #Vim9script lately! It's a modern take on #VimScript with better performance and cleaner syntax.
Just dropped flashcards to learn the basics. Fun & interactive.

@MGAceman

I've been hit a couple of times by Control+Q and Control+W. The latter is habitual for either switching windows in VIM or erasing the last word in a terminal session.

Bash does an intro to #Doomemacs, a nice #vim layer on #emacs ... Great video, brava!

If you spend too much time fine-tuning your `.vimrc`, is it called "yank shaving"? #vim

After a long break from #vim, I’ve recently started using nvim.

Feels good! More forgiving somehow, and much less like you’re dry-humping Unix.

Este lenguaje es el puente definitivo entre la lógica de software y el silicio. Para escribir código eficiente en sistemas embebidos, tus prioridades deben ser claras:

Control total de memoria con #Punteros y referencias.

#POO estricta y encapsulamiento sin sobrecargar la RAM.

Tipado fijo para optimizar cada bit del microcontrolador.

Tags files are a normal part of many C and C++ repositories, and editors load them automatically. In Vim before 9.2.0735, that convenience was a code-execution path: completing a struct member against a crafted tags file ran arbitrary Ex commands through an unescaped :vimgrep pattern. The patch escapes the typeref and typename fields. How much should an editor trust files that ship inside a cloned repo?
#vim #security

Vim 9.2.0735 closes a tags-file code-execution flaw. The C omni-completion routine concatenated the typeref and typename tag fields directly into a :vimgrep search pattern with no escaping, so a crafted tags file could use the pipe character to close the pattern and inject arbitrary Ex commands. Triggering it needs only default filetype plugins, a readable tags file, and a manual completion on a struct member. Where should the trust boundary for project-local tags files sit?

@hgrsd And if you go to #vim in order to avoid chords of keys, #emacs just makes no sense.

Teaching #vim newcomers about `[Esc] :q!` is funny, but it's like teaching #git newcomers to just delete and clone from scratch whenever they screw up some branching or rebasing (been there, on both sides).

Why not start by learning about `u` and `⌃R` for undo and redo? And `reflog` wrt. git
