Neovim + LazyVim

vis. Only used it for editing configs and stuff though, not programming.

Micro is pretty nice, has limited mouse support in the TUI line numbers highlighting. That or Neovim customized

Mostly Neovim and Nano. Tried out ed in the UNIX4 tape that got recovered, was strange but fun to see where sed, grep and other commands got their name from.

GUI is still good old Sublime Text, but I almost completely switched to terminal based editors, I guess because of the nice work flow.

Kate 👀

Neovim for terminal but often I use kate for gui because I still don’t find vim commands more efficient

Vim unless I can neovim.

Being able to change configs on headless systems was my gateway, now I just prefer it

Used to use micro but just switched to neovim, I’m finding it great, esp with the file manager built in

vim forever (i think)

Was staunchly team vim for 15 years, but now I’m on helix. As another user stated below, its like if vim were re-designed today, and without needing any addons to be a code-aware editor.

nano, vi, geany, kate…

I prefer nano - simple to use & always available. I manage remote systems often from my mobile using termius: config file editing, writing simple scripts for some analysis/automation tasks and recording task notes and status. Using a tablet I might use vi but generally prefer nano.

Nano. It’s the easiest to use

Helix: Barely needs a config. But they are also pretty close to done with a plug-in system for the stuff that isn’t implemented by default :D

When I first started using Linux I used Kate, I know, I know, not command line, but I didn’t needed a command line editor for my own computer. Eventually I started using nano for quick edits and that became my default CLI editor for a while. I don’t remember what I used as an IDE back then, but maybe it was Eclipse, although I think it was mostly just Kate.

Eventually I decided to learn either VI or Emacs, and a friend who used Emacs pushed me to that side. I ended up switching everything to emacs, CLI, IDE, I even learnt org-mode and had tables and presentations in it.

Eventually my pinky started to hurt too much, so I switched to Pycharm for python, and kept emacs for C++, text edits and org-mode. I ended up slowly switching emacs everywhere and reverted to nano.

Some years back I decided to properly learn vim. I have been using nvim for a few years, and while it’s not the everything tool that emacs was for me, it’s still pretty darn useful. I also haven’t become a movement ninja and oftentimes I go wwwwww to get where I want to be. But still, there are some very nice shortcuts that I use a lot like Change Inside/Around or Delete X lines. Macros are cool, and sometimes feel magical, but other times they don’t work like I expected and I can’t figure out why. I don’t see myself changing to something else, the ubiquity of vim shortcuts in other programs makes it very convenient when I have to use something else.

When I ran a trivia bot on irc back in the day, I used to use sed to edit question files. But mostly use nano now. I don’t do anything all day and COULD learn vim/emacs/something else. But I cbf
