How to Exit Vim
I guess. It is non-ideal how unintuitive it is to exit vim, but esc-esc-q-! is really not that complicated.

I feel like you're missing a few esc's and a colon in there...

zz? Only one esc, but definitely a colon. vim is weird. Works for me, but I understand it’s not suitable for everyone’s tastes.

zz centers the screen on the current line. Use ZZ to save the file and quit. Use ZQ to not save but quit.

oh, I love vim! I still hit esc anywhere between 5 and 7 times before typing :wq to save my work.
