    It shows a message which wastes valuable screen estate, especially on low resolution terminals, containing a message I have to read every single time because the keys are not in muscle memory, and never will because the bindings are stupid.

    On systems I have control over the reaction to nano popping up is exiting, removing it, making sure the package system blocks reinstallation attempts, and go back to what I was initially doing in a sane editor.

      My man, most of us aren’t connecting to our mainframes on VT20s these days. Even on my phone screen the three extra lines nano takes over vi aren’t a problem.

      Also if you have the time to go through all that you have the time to learn ctrl+x.

        Sometimes I’m on call and all I have is my 3DS! Stop assuming by maximum screen resolution :'(

          I know you kid but even the 3ds fits a decent number of lines on screen.
