I regret nothing. Say what you want.

Edit: I just saw the two typos. If you find them, you're welcome to keep them.

I'm probably in the minority but I think it's fantastic! No extra baggage, super quick to work with, and it does syntax highlighting pretty well!

Nah man, I'm with you, nano is no nonsense get shit done editor. It might not have advanced features but I'm not an advanced man.

I also love it. It was my go-to back when I had to walk inexperienced sysadmins through configuring stuff, in my tech support days. I really appreciate all the commands being listed at the bottom.

Just wait until you try Micro

Bloat! Who needs an editor 1000 times the size of their previous one?

It's also self explanatory, which is great if you're new.

Ed and Vim are basically arcane by comparison.

Sure, but learning the very basics of vi/m (and by that I just mean navigation, selection, cutting, and word jumps like e and b), you'll immediately run circles around anyone using nano

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 1 week ago

And by learning nano you'll run circles around everyone who struggles to remember how to fuck exit vi/m.
