#2Reminds me how how Basecamp would have acted during WW2 as well. Nothing to do with business so take it outside.

#3For those who use an actual editor https://www.vimconf.live/
Heh can one imagine a conference for NANO?

#4Nano was my gateway editor when learning *nix in college. I tried vi only to have to close the window to exit. I think nano can continue to safely bring in converts from Windows and MacOS.

#5I don't understand the people who dislike nano as an editor for the *nix system. After spending in it for like 30 minutes - it becomes an indispensable tool for quickly touching up text files anywhere you go to! No matter where I SSH to (*nix systems) - I always had nano available.

#6I never understood the hate Nano gets from vi users. Nano does many things quicker and easier than vi. For example, search & replace. Would I code in Nano? No. Do I use Nano to edit configuration files and make other small edits? Absolutely.

I LOVE Nano. I just can’t figure out vi/vim.

They need to justify all the time they spent learning and configuring vi/vim to themselves and to others.

Linus Torvalds recently did an interview and I was suprised to read that he was considering switching from his micro-emacs setup to Nano. If it's Linus approved, how can I say something is bad? ;)

Probably the elitist guys, the ones that have their identity defined by the editor they use, the language and framework and the Linux distro/DE/OS they use.
Many people just need a tool that does a simple job but does it well, like editing a ini file and adding a line or a word, nano is great for that. (we all know that type of guy that has to tell everyone all the time that he uses Arch and Rust would have fixed everything)
