Published wget command line to fetch a PGP key for a repository doesn't work in 18.04
Trying to install SublimeText 3 on a new laptop.
Various sources (including the SublimeText site, and "itsfoss") suggest this as a way to get the PGP key for the PPA:
wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
On 16.04 Ubuntu, that wget command does indeed fetch the key. However, on a fresh 18.04 installation, that command gets an error:
wget: invalid option -- '0'
What changed?

You've mis-entered the arguments - that's a capital O not a zero.
The command you want to run is this one:
wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
... whereas the one you entered is most likely this one:
wget -q0 - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
