Vim and Emacs are popular in ultra critical environments, and as far as we know they aren't compromised by any intelligence agency.

nano likes you too. But real h4x0rs use vim. Or emacs if they have 40 fingers.

nano good for idiot. me stupid. me nano for edit config file. nano not scary to leave, nano tell you exactly how!

[-] ITGuyLevi@programming.dev 30 points 1 day ago

Thank you for not only the laughter this morning but also for perfectly explaining why I always go for nano.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago

you nice to me. me thank.

You know, I know the command to leave is written every time emacs is opened, but it confuses me every time.

im pretty sure you can operate emacs with only one finger with some insane configuration tho

lol, but evil is vim keybinds. i was thinking of something more like morse code with one key

[-] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

I'm pretty sure someone already did a Morse IME that could be used for that.

I have โ€“ were I more artistically talented โ€“ often wanted to create graphics and stickers for Emacs utilizing the noble octopus.

I used to like nano too. Then I found micro.

[-] NoPanko@feddit.uk 9 points 1 day ago

Yeah micro is my go to these days when i just want a terminal editor that does require me to learn a whole new system for something Iโ€™ve been doing most of my life
