Hmm, that line of thought opens a really rusted can of worms. Since 80-90% of "newcomers" use Windows and their fingers are programmed for Windows keystrokes and mouse actions, maybe the Linux desktop should be a look-alike instead of just being better. However, only 5% of "newcomers" use Macs, so we should not bother to cater to them. Sorry, but I just don't buy it. The "make it like Windows" line of thinking is why I'm not happy with Gnome and systemd and a few other critical package groups that are going down the wrong path.
And you won't ever see me suggesting that. I switched to Linux to get away from Windows, and I don't want to go back.
There are a lot of reasons why people pick their favourite editor - mine is vi (not vim)
And that's fine. If you like vi, use it; if you prefer something else, use that. I just think that HOWTOs and walkthroughs should be editor agnostic, instead of making newbies think that there's One True Editor for Linux, no matter which one it is.
However, if you like some particular editor, why do you not simply change the EDITOR env variable in your .bashrc
Did that long ago, so that I can use the editor I like. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
