I don’t understand the need for Ctrl-C/V, when manually copying the text exists.
I know it’s snarky, but that’s the level of difference we’re talking about here.
Or imagine, to delete a line, someone Right Arrows 50 times, then backspaces 50 times, instead of using the shortcut.
It just makes a lot of stuff way easier once you know how to use it. Switching out a word for another: two button-presses, duplicating a line: three presses, deleting 500 consecutive lines: five presses
But you can do all that with nano and it is straight forward and you don’t need to memorize any key combinations. I mean, I get it and no judgement here. I just use nano because it’s easy and quick.
nano crew where you at
hopefully switching to micro
I made that switch a few months ago just so I could cut, copy and paste without having to lookup how to do it. it’s been great.
I never get the need to use vim and nano exists.

You can also copy paste by manually copying text by hand, would call that a valid alternative to Ctrl-C/V?
