"Dudebro startups like yours get shit from angry feminists all the time." #WTH?
Maybe you consider that I'm one of those angry feminists but...I'm a girl, I'm a developer and nope...I think I won't use Vim.sexy....
I think it was an attempt at humor, but just completely missed the mark.
Considering the emphasis in the following sections, I think that you are correct:
"You'll look so accepting and humanitarian just by using Vim, that you won't even have to think about actual social issues. This leaves you free to go back to solving problems that really matter, like building apps that incentivize breaking up protests or apps that crowd-source date conversations.
Don't get me wrong: I know you don't actually care about human rights and social issues. All that matters is that you look like you care."
Also, is there an actual product here? This just looks like a webpage that is advertising Vim usage to me. Pretty sure the entire page is meant to be a joke, probably referencing/mocking some other page that I'm not aware of.

No kidding. This submission is going to be littered with people (all genders) expressing the same sentiment.
I feel as if I shouldn't be clicking links that end in the .sexy TLD at work
It's SFW, no worries.
The point isn't whether the actual content SFW or not, picking a TLD that's inappropriate for most workplaces is probably not a great idea.
I mean, what's the actual fear? That you will be reprimanded for visiting the site by somebody who does not actually bother to visit the site to see that it isn't porn? Seems like a pretty easy thing to explain.
...but the TLD might be blocked and/or logged by my enterprise, so I won't click at work.
Painfully unfunny.
Agreed... I thought someone had actually released a new version of VIM with some cool new features or something. Not funny at all and wasted my time.
Agreed.

This is a joke, right?
