Comment on What non-IDE tekst editor do you use?

The GNOME text editor or Nano.
I appreciate Vim, but when I just need to inspect something or change a single line, the former are easier.
As for Neovim and Emacs… I don’t have eight hours to set aside monthly to keep them configured and working.

I’ve been a vim user for over a decade and I doubt I’ve spent eight hours configuring it in all that time.

Most of the configuration I’ve done in vim is to remove whatever someone else did. Like I log in as root on a server and someone put
set numberin/root/.vimrc. Like having the line number in the bottom right wasn’t enough for you, you need to waste three columns to show numbers for every line on the screen, and now I can’t copy and paste from vim without having to delete three columns from every line? NO.
