I’m the same way. I think it’s just a matter of being conditioned to manually save for the majority of my computing life.

Ok here's a question I should have asked like way sooner.
In Ubuntu (and similar distros), is there a hotkey to immediately kill the process? Like CTRL-C but harsher.
My PC has a dedicated key to kill all processes.
sudo poweroff?
I use a process manager like btop for this.
CTRL-C -- SIGINT
CTRL-\ -- SIGQUIT
CTRL-Z + kill -9 %1 -- SIGTSTP + SIGKILL

Ctrl+s+s+s+s+s
LOL good point about just not releasing Ctrl.
The chances are non-zero that somebody out there attempts to release and press ctrl+s at the exact same time over and over like they're hammering out Beethoven's 5th. XD
I just do a full rebuild. Saves all files.
I was never really aware I did this until I had to program something with hot reloading (I don't remember what) and it was so insufferable...
And now my pain is with rustfmt. Just because I saved before filling in the struct fields does not mean I want you to format the struct accordingly!!!
autosave is no good if you have live reload imo
Intellij being a good guy amd autosaving every few seconds. No more worrying about crtl+s.
i just store everything in google drive and let chance take over
Excuse me i think you mean ctrl+c:w
Except the autosave in BBEdit. I trust that with my life. It’s never lost ANYTHING in 30 years.
Meanwhile, me over here with the self-doubt slamming ctrl-z
