    Seeing microsd cards left out in the open around an animal gives me anxiety. You might accidentally install linux on your cat.

        I don’t find it difficult, but I’m mostly joking. If Nano works for you, stick with that. I’m sure your cat will learn to accept and love you regardless 😉

        The only real benefit of vim IIRC is that it’s always included in an installation. The other text editors may need to be separately downloaded/installed on new or unfamiliar systems.

        Like the other user said, if nano works for you, keep it. If you ever are forced to use vim however, a cheatsheet like this one should make it doable. (And yes, hitting esc a couple times before entering any command is a common practice to make sure you exited a mode)

          It’s also faster/easier for people who know how to use it as you don’t have to take your hands off the keyboard and can zoom around, people that don’t know their way around Vim however find it more annoying to use.

    I know there’s some kind of joke here about cats and computer mice… there has to be.

    He’s telling you its time to switch from Nano to Vim, and stop using your cursor so much.

      Vim is quite hard to use @-@. I would have to learn using it and that is not easy. So far I’m satisfied with using VS code and nano.

      Capacitive touch monitors would be close, but they tend to be expensive and just ust regular glass. (still could resist a cat scratch as long as there isn’t any grit/sand stuck in the claws)

      You could probably put a sheet of glass in front of your monitor… Haven’t seen any glass monitors I believe.
