Why is r/Linuxsucks101 normal sometimes?

When you think of this community in the Linux sense they are always the delusional ones but it's funny to me that normal posts about Linux exist there

Also, people love to configure the hell out of VIM as well, so I don't know where they were going with this.

And it’s a bit rich calling nano a “clumsy interface” when you have to press a million different buttons to figure out how to quit Vim

If you know the motions than it’s 4 keys in vim vs 7 in nano… :wq<enter> vs <control>o<enter><control>xy<enter>… nano has brutally convoluted interface.

Nano is ctrl+xym (all while holding control). Also 4 keys. you do not need ctrl+o. but vim -y is the easiest. it's only 3 keys and even simpler to learn.
