    Because if there’s something that Nano does better than Vim, I’d love to know what it is so I can make use of it

    What nano does better: being more user friendly and showing you the most common actions in the bottom part of the editor. A tool to do quick edits without needing to learn specific keystrokes for everything you want to do.

      @GreenMario@lemm.ee already knows Vim, though:

      Used to use vim for ssh related stuff

      That’s why I asked:

      Nano’s only appeal is that it’s beginner-friendly, but you already know Vim, so why switch?

      Why would someone switch to a more user-friendly editor when they’re already used to their current editor?

      What does user-friendliness have to do with workflow?
