Changing from a distro that defaults to nano to another that defaults to vim… What to do other than installing nano and changing visudo?

nano. I can’t memorize esoterica.
That’s who micro exist. And is so much better.
nano still wins. All the shortcuts are listed at the bottom.
Micro doesn’t need to list the shortcuts because it uses similar shortcuts to notepad and you don’t have to do weird ctrl+x to exit but ctrl+q (for quit). Also copy and pasting isn’t a nightmare in it.
Copy and paste in nano work just fine - no clue what you’re talking about. It uses standards established in the '80s - Ctrl-X for eXit being an even older standard - and clearly lists them visibly for a quick reminder.
Yeah cutting text with ctrl+k instead of ctrl+x (because that’s exit) and copying with alt +6 instead of ctrl+c.
Le
Mao.
In emacs ctrl+y is paste, which is weird to me because i’m pretty sure even in emacs the logic is that y stands for yank, but in every other program i’ve used so far yank means copy, not paste. In the end though i feel like muscle memory from other editors don’t bother me as much, and i can learn multiple at the same time. I started with evil mode for vim bindings for a short while, but now i’m diving into pure emacs bindings.
Yeah, that’s what the shortcut hint shows, champ.
Why doesn’t my Lemmy comment box show shortcut hints? How will I know the shortcut for copy, cut and paste? I tried pressing alt+6 but it did nothing. Curse you Ecmascript from 1997!
Which command-line program are you using to access Lemmy?
