Sometimes when entering :, vim appends .,.+3 to it, preventing me from executing a command. I couldn't find anything about this behaviour online, is there a way to get do away with it? At the moment, I use vim 8.0 (in iTerm2) but it also used to occur in earlier versions.

This happens when you typed a number before the colon. Vim interprets it as the number of lines on which you want your ex command to operate.
If you press
4:you get:.,.+3which is a range that covers the current line (.) and the three lines below the current line (.+3).That behavior is old and documented in
:help N:(:help :rangeis an interesting read, too).If you want to get rid of that range, see
:help <C-u>.
