    Nano is more like fast food. It’s easy and convenient, but it makes you feel a little guilty and dirty afterwards.

      Nano is the tool that people use when they don’t have a need for TUI editors in general and therefore don’t want to have to memorize how people with teletypes decided things should have been done 75 years ago and who also don’t want to get dragged into endless pointless bickering arguments about which set of greybeards was objectively right about their sets of preferences.

      I’m glad people enjoy the editors they use and also I just wanna change a single fuckin line in a config file every once in a while without needing to consult a reference guide.

        I don’t have much to say about nano, except the hotkey bindings are weird and unnatural.

        They make sense, but they feel wrong.

        Vim felt like having superpowers when I started with it, after being spoiled by helix it feels like a relic though
