It is sad that we have to know how to configure tens of small utilities just to be productive. I ended up using emacs with some packages that I configure minimally, after spending a few hundreds of hours on ricing the shell, file managers, tmux, etc
I make do with just nano and basic pane/window/sockets in tmux. Certainly didn’t put in a few hundred hours learning this. Not even a few hundred minutes.
I've used vim to the stage that I not only know how to exit it, its muscle memory...
And I still prefer nano. Its just better imo.
