    It’s pretty simple:

    • Spam the escape key a bit
    • Then do shift + ;
    • when you’re in command mode, do the following
    • q! to forcibly quit
    • wq! to forcibly write your changes and quit

    Simple!-ish

      Not to be pedantic, but it’s not shift+; it’s :, which may be somewhere else depending on your keyboard. For example on (german?) Quertz that’s shift+.

        This is true, but since I already used “:” to indicate an upcoming list, I wanted to be deliberately clear that I was referring to the key, and not suggesting another list.
