Can't help diagnose gedit, can only say that in nigh on a quarter century's use of vi/vim, I've never lost (or doubled up on) a byte through unreliability. There is though, some extra use of undo while getting used to it, as with most unfamiliar software tools. I will admit to casting an eye on the status line to check the size of, in particular, my "on-line brain" file before saving it, just to check that I haven't fumble-fingered a slab of it away myself. The trouble with backups is that they back up your mistakes, if you never check.
