Nano, based.
If I use VI or VIM I'm going to have to kill the task because I just tried to exit and uggggghhhh why!?
:q! or :exit or :quit or ZZ...there's lots of ways to quit Vim.
and why should it be? vim and its bindings are extremely popular. should window managers all use alt+f4 to kill programs, just because its familiar to new users?
Yes.
Should word processors all use Ctrl-C to copy?
There’s really no point in criticizing something like vim. It has a history and a following, and no one is forcing you to use it. (Unless someone is, in which case you should be annoyed with them, not vim.)
Yes.
