me like use nano. nano say how do thing. nano exit easy.
Helix:
You should all try fresh (the editor)…
I don’t get why there’s so much prejudice towards nano users in the Linux community, people act like nano is useless but it performs its job well, and it does it without being large or overly complicated.
micro > *
That greate than sign and the name clashes.
micro > nano. :p
My computer my choice
There is a right choice and you know it. Stop bring silly and say it out loud!
(Duck and cover, flame war!)
I use Nano with the CUA keybindings because screw it, modal editors are too slow for me

Honestly nano is perfect for quick edits. Vim and Emacs are powerful, but sometimes you just want to open a config file, change one line, and exit without fighting the editor. 😄
This is what i use vim for. Vim doesn’t necessarily have to be a full blown ide with 30 plugins
Vim does not just work if you don’t know how to get into edit mode and save and quit from there. Nano even has built in search and replace.
Funny story, when i first got into linux (almost a decade ago), I accidentally opened nano pasting some random command off the internet and didn’t know how to close it because I didn’t know what the ^ symbol meant.
I had successfully been quiting (and using) vim for a few months at this point.
Brain size for neovim???
the templates for memes are free on the internet.
I have over 83 templates.
nano gang represent😎
I can use Vim, it was the choice for years. But I actually like using nano because it’s what I need and all I need.
I actually prefer micro
Linux text editor discourse has been baffling to me for decades now. I don’t care which you use, and I care even less about why.
nano is usually built in. Adding another one is just redundant if all you’re using it for is editing an occasional config file.
Honestly never understood the hate for it. Who cares? Petty, stupid, nerd-wars over little crap like a text editor is the reason average people don’t even consider linux.
I see vim preinstalled more than nano (e.g. in container images). I’ve been trying to convert to micro, though. It has better support for terminal emulators than nano.
I very rarely see people hate nano (except a few comments in this thread), and I always see nano recommended as the text editor when people give advice on doing things in the command line
VS Code is probably the editor that’s easiest to exit. If I ran it on the computer I first ran Emacs on, it’d exit immediately, because VS Code requires a modern version of Windows and that computer had Windows 3.11. If I ran it on the first computer I ran Linux on, it’d also exit immediately because the machine would run out of memory. (…it was a 486DX, I don’t remember how much memory it had, but VS Code doesn’t run well if your memory is measured in megabytes)
Emacs evil mode enters the chatEmacs is a table saw, vim is a chainsaw, nano is a scissor. Every problem those 3 solve is a differently sized single sheet of paper.
HAHAHA HAHAHA
announce to the world you know fuck-all about either, lol
