Deleting text leads to strange results

For example, I selected two lines and typed :Norm de, and then deleted the previous two characters. This made it so another word got deleted on each line. I then pressed <Esc> to cancel, which didn't revert one of the deletions.

Thanks for reporting, could you provide some more detailed reproduction steps, e.g. what exactly did you type? I am not sure what you meant with " and then deleted the previous two characters. " (do you mean de in command mode?) and which words got deleted.

Wait, does github automstically convert GIFs to pngs or something? I could have sworn that looked fine when I sent it...

GitHub definitely used to support GIFs, I think it's still the case. Could you let me know what happened after you typed the command shown in the screenshot?
