Closing nano is more complicated imo
Nano is overrated. I tell everyone who needs to edit from the terminal to use vimtutor. You'll never go back to Nano.
What's so great on vim for the average Joe which isn't offered by nano?
Teleportation: the cursor can be teleport to any line without pressing down key multiple times...
Macro: for repeating a sequence of inputs multiple times...
Tabs: nano can't open multiple files at once i believe...
Split screen(horizontal and vertical)
Themes and plugins
These are a few that comes to mind...
Yeah, for all of those things, there's Micro.
Yes, but the person asked comparing to nano...
