Vim or Emacs?
Vim all the way!!
Are you AVAB (assigned Vim at birth) or are you trans-editor?
Definitely AVAB. I love working through a terminal. One cannot do everything on iTerm2 as one could do on a Debian distro, but it gets pretty close.
Good choice.
It is the only choice. This is the way? Wait, is that not appropriate here? I’m not high anymore, but I am still very drunk 😅
Though I will be honest, mousepad is very convenient. Useful? Not really. But changing an env var? Pretty easy. Is that a sin?
Nope. If it's comfortable and useful to you, it's the right choice. I've reasons that I prefer (neo)vim to other options - namely that I live in the terminal and have worked with a lot of remove hosts. But, any option out there that works for you is the right choice. I've used EMACS before and it's a great tool too just not as well situated in my patterns of usage for me to find it useful to me.
Have you even tried emacs?
Gotta be honest…Maybe once.
sudo apt install mousepad
For most tasks, it’s fine. I originally bought a MacBook because I wanted to do Obj-C programming for iPhone OS, as it was called at that time. However, my ex-wife became pregnant and gave birth to our son. He is almost 16 now, and I cannot seem to find the joy in anything that I once did. He is a sophomore now, once he starts college, I will try to chase my dream of being an indie iOS dev. I really wanted to be a r.petrich of JB fame, but it seems that JB is not for the masses anymore.
I would recommend giving it a try, there is doomemacs if you're feeling like learning or spacemacs if you don't. Both have a vi-like usage.
This is essential. Can't give one a reach-around without knowing that.
