Stockholm Syndrome was never real, it was made up to explain a situation where hostages recognized an injustice and refused to perpetuate it, so cops called them crazy. So sure, if you call me crazy for my affection for a tool that has served me well for decades, I’ll consider you a cop.
If I am forced to use an editor in the terminal, nano generally. But I very rarely need to because I have a functioning modern computer from within the last 25 years and therefore have a gui I can rely on. If I somehow manage to break the gui in a way that requires me to edit a text file (itself very very rare) I can fix it with nano.
Now, why would you voluntarily use an editor with a ui that’s needlessly confusing and convoluted, an arse to learn, and notoriously difficult to even save a file and close without checking help files if you haven’t already memorised completely random key combinations? I would say we’d love to know, but we already do. It’s because you’re an arrogant dickwad - at least that’s what your last comment makes you look like
Because you want to get out of your Stockholm syndrome?

Okay… because you refuse to actually look at whether there are better options than the absolute trash you are using because you are used to it
I’ve used other options and carefully elaborated them all, vim remained a superior tool.
Because you’re used to it. No other reason
What’s the superior choice to vim, then?
Literally anything up to and including poking yourself in the eyes and trying to develop laser vision to manually modify bits on the disk platter
See, you’ve realized your blunder, now. Tell us what editor you use in the terminal, ReCursing, the one that is better than vim. We’d love to know.

Yep 🙄
