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.

RIP and thanks for all the hard work I’ve benefited from over the last decade.
I’ll think of this man while explaining vim to my new hire next week.
