That’s a classic debate! Nano’s simplicity is appealing, especially for quick edits. But Vim’s power and customization are hard to beat once you get the hang of it. It really depends on your needs and how much time you’re willing to invest. Reminds me of the endless discussions about who’s the best quarterback, something my friends and I, the Football Bros, argue about constantly! Both are great, just different.

Nano is the only one I use because it’s the only one I know how to use
@butter same here. Vim is too complicated for me.
Same. I still don’t know how to quit vim
If you’re not using ed you’re actually using bloat just fyi.
@Doubleplusgoodman what is ‘ed’?
Go get ed-jucated.
@Doubleplusgoodman Thank you :)
May I suggest: Helix . I used vim for years, but I’ve been enjoying the switch to this.
How does it compare to vim?
Its better, has first-class multi-cursor support, and you don’t need to install any plugins to get it usable. Also has LSP support for pretty much every language. IMO its a true successor to vim, which is so old now its like a leaky roof that needs constant repairs (in the form of plugins).
Yes.
I use my right to remain silent upon this question.
Nano is only better in having a lower learning curve, and still being sufficient for most people just wanting to get the job done.
Vim is way more capable and feature rich (especially after you extend with plugins), much more satisfying to use once you get the hang of it, and can be much faster
@cyclohexane true. i never spent the time to learn vim.
my brother in christ, just use whatever you want, get a life 😭
@k_o_t sure :D

you can really get the job done sticking to sed, echo, cat and grep. an even bigger brain solution
yes, it is for certain tasks
Which ones? (Sincere question, as I just use Vim for everything.)
For someone who doesn’t have strong vim magic ability (esc !wq vs !q or !w) just adding a few lines to .conf i mean ^x (shift x) enter enter is a bit easier.
You should use what you feel most comfortable with. Also it is not a binary choice. I use vim and vscode and emacs. Vim is already available in all remote systems which is why it is my first choice when I am debugging something. I use vscode as an IDE and emacs as a general purpose editor. Haven’t used nano for ages but it is a nice editor nevertheless.
Yes. Thank you for providing this information. Good fortune. I also blog, and I’d really like more people to read my most recent article about rooftop snipers .
It’s fantastic that such knowledge is widely disseminated. When it comes to action games, in addition to shooting, tank games are also a topic that is noticed and mentioned a lot. That’s why rocket bot royale is a tank game that is getting more and more sought after by players. In this game, you will control your tank moving on an island, fighting against the enemies.
