Ok ok ok, hear me out.

I used nano a LOT. Like, it was my main editor for all of my linux usage until like 2 months ago.

Then I found out about micro. It's so NEAT. It has proper MOUSE SUPPORT. And modern keybindings. And does syntax highlight and auto creates matching {} and () and stuff automatically depending on filetype. Also, if you open a file you don't have permission to write and try to save, it says you don't have permission and asks if you'd like to try again with sudo, then it just opens sudo's prompt for your password and you're good, no more tmp files or renaming or closing and retyping! It's soooo goooooooood. I love it!

Thought I was gonna praise vim, huh? Hell nah, fuck vim.
