Anytime I open Vim I ask the same question.

"how the fuck do I use you?"

then go back to nano

repeat.

Have you tried micro? Nano but better.

Have you tried GUI text editors? They're like the CLI ones, just from this millennium. We're no longer etching runes into rocks any more either.

I refuse to use any GUI until people stop pronouncing it as gooey.

Well now I'm going to pronounce it gooey even harder!

Sometimes it's not so easy to fire up a GUI, like when you ssh into another machine.

CLI text editors have their specific use cases. For all other cases GUI ones (Kate, VSCode,...) exist.

Hopefully tongue-in-cheek.
Because sure. Microsoft Word is the best IDE.

No.

Learn the difference between a word processor and a text editor.

Guess you're not up on your memes. Frightfully sorry for responding to what I assumed was a meme answer with a meme answer.
