Is Nano better than Vim?
@memes
Sure, Nano’s simple, but Vim unlocks a whole new level of text editing power. It takes practice, but mastering Vim is like mastering the most challenging Snow Rider 3D track – the reward is worth the effort. You’ll be zooming through files in no time.
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’?
@Doubleplusgoodman Thank you :)
Go get ed-jucated.
Yes.
I use my right to remain silent upon this question.
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).
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
The comparison between Nano and Vim depends on individual preferences and specific use cases. Both Nano and Vim are popular text editors but have different features mapquest driving directions and design philosophies.
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.
you can really get the job done sticking to sed, echo, cat and grep. an even bigger brain solution
@inkwiwtba @anders I prefer nvi personally.
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.
