A lot of the comment’s I’ve seen everywhere over this news is “exiting vim” out of respect and admiration. They aren’t being disrespectful but honoring the legacy that he fostered, and remembering the hard parts of his software.

There’s a difference between making a vim reference and “oh, a mourning family message? quick, i must find a stale joke to crack for internet points”

Feel free to tell yourselves this is respectful. I think some people here have been on the internet for too long.

We as family are now arranging the funeral service of Bram which will take place in The Netherlands and will be held in the Dutch lanuage. The extact date, time and place are still to be determined.

Hmm.

They couldn’t be bothered to proofread the letter. It’s somewhat disrespectful

Clearly English isn’t the first language of the writer. How disrespectful to invite members of the community to his funeral services indeed.
