@nixCraft They'd have to kill everyone for that. Nobody in their right mind actually edits with vi/vim/helix unless they're masochistic or *programming*, which is a completely different use case from simple text editing.

People use nano because it's easy and it works

@jdrch @nixCraft vi has been my go-to for a quick editor for years. Befor that we had ed. For bigger stuff, there is a environment called Emacs. It is more then an editor ... 😂

@m0jek @nixCraft Use whatever works for you hahaha. Sorry, I get triggered by people dissing nano when its existence has probably made Linux and Unix more accessible than they would have been otherwise

@jdrch @nixCraft np, I used to use Joe editor too 😂 , and there was also uemacs (micro Emacs) that was just an editor using Emacs keys but non of the extras
