That’s why nano gets used more than vi/vim. In the past, the majority of people using terminal text editors were geeks and developers. Now the majority of people using the terminal text editors are more often casual users who have no use for putting the time and effort to learn vi/vim, especially because they have no need for the extended functionality

I don’t get you people. Proper copy/paste support is “extended functionality”? I beg to differ. This is basic functionality. And no, single line copy/paste as offered by nano, or copy and paste through the terminal is not proper copy/paste.
