      There’s nothing to change. Nano is better designed, but vi is a more powerful tool.

      Why we have to care much about software usage. This is the current issue of linux communities, which decrease user qualities.

      Our enemy Microsoft and other “big tech” laugh people like these. They are using linux just like they use windows, even bring the bad, flawed windows culture to linux.

      Don’t let the enemy to laugh at us.

        Infighting is on the Unix culture since it left the Bell Labs. Or maybe even sooner.

        But the only real enemy of that set is NVidia.

          The only?

          (Windows user that switch to linux and then say: we only need partition for / and /home are also enemies. Windows user that have switch to linux and use root for every task are enemies.)

            Are those ex-Windows users slowing you down in any way?

            And anyway, if you are talking about desktops, I’ve been using only / and /home for about 20 years since I noticed that /boot and /var didn’t bring me any value for a really long time. I’m currently wondering if I shouldn’t ditch /home.

                Wow, I can’t believe I’m reading that first point from a 2018 comment. I’d mock it if it was in 2006.

                You should have backups. Not hedge against 1 in 10 million error conditions.

                The second one is a huge bother in desktops. I never not regretted trying it.

                The third one is a complete non-problem.

                  if a partition isn’t actively written to, it’s less likely to suffer damage

                  The second one is a huge bother in desktops. I never not regretted trying it.

                  ok

                  The third one is a complete non-problem.

                  This is only a problem with OpenBSD. They never encourage using a huge single root partition, and never test it.

                  It have an asterisk, not a -

      I’ve known some fantastic developers that used Nano as their primary editor. It supports syntax highlighting, linting, and bracket matching (jumping to the matching opening bracket when a closing one is selected, and vice versa), which is enough for some people.

      Sure, it’s no micro, but it’s already installed practically everywhere.
