I think in my #vi journey on #OpenBSD that I'm leaning towards #nvi as in nvi2. Only because I do use some nerd font stuff to pretty up some of my menus and my bar. But obviously that could change as I may get rid of those nerd fonts and just stick with plain text?
If you're an OpenBSD user and use vi instead of vim do you use the builtin n(vi) or nvi2 ?

@justine i use the built in, but I also only use vi for admin tasks and simple edits. Beyond that, i end up in emacs and was never happy with nvim/tmux when fully kitted out as a terminal coding or doc writing environment.

Maybe you can relate, but I find a conflict between my drive for minimalism and simplicity in the composition of the system, and my direct appreciation of the system as a daily driver — how it makes me feel when I first sit down to work, and how it feels in hour 8 of work.

I found that prioritizing feel over minimalism and simplicity just a bit — keeps me happy
