Which sort of mirrors the learning curve for Linux, and Git. Which makes the decision poetically significant, if not particularly meaningful from a rational learning standpoint.
- bayindirh 6y agoI personally find modern Linux and git easier to grasp and discover compared to vi/vim/emacs. Help prompts, user interfaces and capabilities of GUI tools have increased tremendously over the last decade in the Linux realm. However, vi (because of its nature) stayed almost the same. Even in 2020, I need to dig a lot of resources and keep my own notes to do anything complex in vi(m). This is not the same for rest of a Linux installation.
