    lol, I don't care for vi, but I am not going to make repo about how evil or bad vi is. People use different tools for different reasons.

    Why ? 🤦🏻‍♂️ I use only Nano in Linux. It’s just a tool to get the job done.

    I once had an intern and midway through his internship he wrote 4 pages of concise bullet points, with size 12 font... of everything wrong with the product I wrote and poured my soul into. I fell in love with him

    I don't think management appreciated him so much though. bah. they hired another guy and they really should've hired this guy!

    also he sent Hitler memes once: https://youtube.com/watch/...

    You can unmap ctrl-z and use another keybind for undo. But actually, you don't have to, because that's the default.

    Nano is about as tiny as the name implies. That is a plus, with firing up an OS-sized editor for a one line edit and all.

    Furthermore, the swiss army kitchensink approach to editors as a whole is kind of pointless a lot of the time. In a day-to-day setting I would need, besides writing, eight things:

    - Syntax highlighting

    - Undo/redo

    - Find/replace

    - Jump to line

    - Copy/paste

    - Open file

    - Execute

    - Backup my shit in case I accidentally close the window.

    Every editor does this, which is the bare minimum. What's the fuzz about then? Trivial functionality that doesn't matter 99% of the time? Looks like it.

    Anyway, crucify Visual Studio.
