I'm trying out Obsidian for taking notes, and this made me laugh.

There's a few different ways to write that command in vim, does it accept all of them?
I'm honestly not super familiar with vim. I tried :q! and it accepted it, what are some other ways?
:q :3
Average furry programmer
Halfway true :3 I'm only a professional programmer which is why I attend in professional work fashion like thigh highs and arm warmers instead of fursuits. I'm more the stereotypical femboy programmer. Pre-edit: am i really just average 3,:
Okay, you are a very cool and sweet femboy programmer :)
Ah, unfortunately it only asks you this question the first time you try it.

E37: No write since last change (add ! to override)
You appear to be in the wrong subreddit (sublemmy?). This is a community based around programmer humor. I recommend you go to the furry sublemmy instead. It is for this reason I have down voted your post today
I don't get it. I was pretty much replying with a programming related answer, being ":q". I only added my personal flair to it, being ":3". And I only expanded after another person assumed me to be a furry as well.
If you want me gone because of that, you got to get your priorities out of the gutter, there ain't none. And fix your stereotypes too. The other person at least replied humorously. You won't get a ":3" from me. Good day!
Buddy where do you think furries get the money for fursuits? They are very expensive (or so I’ve heard) and lots of furries pay for their fursuits with high paying jobs like IT jobs
:quit!,:qa!,ZQAh, thanks for
ZQ. I only knewZZ, alternative to:x.:!killall vim:wq will save and then exit, while :x will save only if the file has been modified and then exit, and then there's ZZ that does the same as :x, plus there are probably others:-)
The question specifically asked for "the command to quit Vim without saving"
They explicitly ask for the one that quits without saving, so I'd say :q! is the obvious choice
I agree that it's the most obvious choice, but it also doesn't work when there are hidden buffers open. :qa! and :cq should always work so they are arguably more correct
Which means none of those are valid? Since this is specifically "quit without saving"
This guy vims
No, I tried ZQ the other day, does not work
my disappointment is immesurable and my day is ruined.
