I get it, for a power user, vim is probably incredibly powerful. However, I just want to edit text files. I don't want a text editor where I need a cheat sheet just to save my changes and quit.
Funny, that's what I hate about Nano. The key binds seem completely random to me and the programs solution to this is to display a cheatsheet on the screen
Makes just enough sense to me, and those are really the only three binds I ever need for editing config files.
I don't want to come off like a vim hater, because I do believe it when people say it's powerful, but... I don't need powerful. I just need to edit text files.
This is my thought process exactly.

Control+W = "Where is," Control+O = "Overwrite", Control+X = "Exit."
