I start: the most important thing is not the desktop, it’s the package manager.

      Try micro.

      It’s much better and quite easy if not easier to use than nano. It should really be the default simple editor.

      I hear you 😁. For whatever reason I stuck with the Vim tutorial and did it a few times over the years. Now I’m using the IdeaVIM extension in IntelliJ - that mode system is just sooo powerful. It has a horrible learning curve, yes, but if you manage to stick with it, it pays huge dividends. I probably know, like, 18% of all commands, and it completely changed how I edit files (mostly for coding, but also text).
