    I do not get these exiting vim memes. I’ve been using vim for over 20 years and it was maybe difficult to remember for the first week, tops.

      When i first started using linux and used vim i thought “wow this sucks but i guess its all i got for now”

      Little did i know that Nano exists. Never again vim.

      Never again.

        Did you know nano supports syntax highlighting? For some reason it wasn’t enabled by default on my first few linuxes. I don’t know if it is nowadays.
