Can you describe the issue with some example? I don't really have such older OS, but from that it seems that it works in later versions of ubuntu?

Thanks for your quick reply!
I can not move the cursor in Normal Mode by typing J K L I. Hitting the key I does not make the VIM enter the Insert Mode.
Overall, the VIM Keybinding can not work in the expected way.

Hi,

Are you sure you are in VIM edit mode?
Can you please provide screenshots of the situation, and maybe open the developer tools console (Ctrl+Shift+I), so I can see if there are any errors in the console tab?

You can open it from the menu

which application version are you using? Latest I suppose?

If you have the latest version, the shortcut seems to have changed to Alt+Ctrl+Shift+I

Hi,

can you let me know of the version of chrome/chromium (and firefox) you have installed with your Ubuntu 16.04?

@Wei-Mao I cannot reproduce the problem either in macOS. Here is my userAgent. Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/96.0.4664.55 Safari/537.36'
I'm now suspecting that the editor might losing focus. There is a reported issue about losing focus when accidentally pressing ESC twice to escape insert mode.

Can you take a video so we can reproduce it?
