Install vim and use it over SSH is the easiest and most direct approach. Since the editor runs in text mode it's perfectly happy to work over SSH. Use tailscale and you can get secure, global access from anywhere like they seem to do with vscode.dev creating a tunnel (tailscale even just added explicit SSH support: https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-ssh/ https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-ssh/).
- iasay 4y agoThis is basically how I operate most of the time. I ssh from my laptop to a bastion jump node and then ssh to my instance in EC2 where I do all my work in tmux and vim. It's cheap, reliable, easy and it works like it did 20 years ago so it's completely network issue resilient as I can just attach to tmux again if something borks.
