@mngrif Oh, sorry. Reading it again and I see your point.
vi is pretty complicated. it was invented by geeks for geeks centuries ago.
I love it but it taken years to be very good with vi. (I'm even using it as editor in my email client.)
That's the reason why - as default - is configured nano.
It is expected, that if you have a headless server, you are not beginner and nano is sufficient for you and vi is like king.

If you have an GUI system, then some default text editor you have installed by default either by Gnome, KDE, or any other lightweight GUI system. You should be never without simple text editor - still sufficient for editing simple configuration files.

If you are editing complicated configuration file, then - again - you are either very skilled and nano/vi is sufficient for you or you should install some nifty editor full of features (but usually with huge list of library dependencies and the size of the package).

My experience - as working with Unix over 25 years - is that more skilled admin is, he is working more with vi/nano/emacs.

But I have to warn you, emacs is for real geeks. It's like operating system inside your operating system. I expect that there is some macro/plugin to emacs capable to control your coffee-machine.

When you take it from other side - what editor is installed by default on Windows fulfilling your requirements?

@mngrif Then, what editor do you miss on Linux you have available on some other platform? Just didn't understand it from your reply.

@mngrif What editors did you try and what was missing?

@freemo How the long messages from qoto are propagated to rest of the federation? If there is a server not supporting long messages, what will happen? Cut or discard?
Thanks.

@tjemni Yes, teach. Not to decide that nobody will use (e.g.) google oauth even I have a reason to use it (not really, just example).
Teach people and let them decide. Don't decide behalf of the users.

@tjemni Job of the programmers is to code what was requested by users.
If you want not-user-friendly system, don't use Ubuntu. "Ubuntu" has some meaning in this case...

@tjemni Is anybody pointing a gun to you that you must use MS or Google login? It's over there to make life easier for people who want it.

Just. Don't. Use. It.

@SecondJon Just put to your calendar during all your non-working time recurring meeting with "busy" status.
My free advice, buy a beer to your spouse...

On the other side - what do you expect if you have clients from the other side of the world? Add a new criteria to select your clients...

@captainepoch@mastodon.social Hmm. Then I will not be able to help, I'm fighting with one template as well (not working properly since some version of hugo) and I'm not good with it as well.
Will ask the forum in next days and will see the response...

@captainepoch@mastodon.social Do you writing your theme from the scratch or tweaking existing one?

@tjemni But it's not a problem of IoT itself. If you will buy a crap, you will get the crap.
