  Or we could all just move to nano and be less frustrated.

      Na, it’s just that a memorial post is a time to pause the editor wars, if only for a moment, and pay respect.

        Nah I’ll pass on that, nano feels dirty.

        I mean it was on a response with a link detailing the single threaded nature of vim development… I don’t think it was inappropriate

    I started with nano, learnt vim and now using neovim.

      I am waiting for neovim 1.0, using vim until there.

        Neovim is stable even though it is still using minor version number.

        The eco system booms after 0.5 (lua support, lsp and treesitter) and after lazy.nvim.
