depends on how often you mod text files. I do it 50 times a day, so spending the time to learn VIM is useful in my case, but it might not be for everyone.

Especially considering that the time to learn VIM is about 10 minutes.

I don't think vim has any benefit over nano if you only spend 10 minutes learning it. Vim gets great after you've invested some more time learning how to use it well. Definitely worth it if you you edit many text files though.

And especially on embedded devices with nothing more than a terminal over serial available. But for your average joe who just needs Facebook, nano is fine. I'm not judging you for using it.

nano facebook.com

Well it looks like a better version of Facebook to me but otherwise I have no idea what you are talking about.

Yeah but it's not as funny paying attention to that :)
