Both are good but I prefer Vim.
I only use Vim, but I appreciate nano as a choice and don't even really mind visudo opening nano
I appreciate nano as a choice. Sure. But if visudo opens in nano and suddenly I have a bunch of "yoi:wq" in my sudoers I'll be upset.
When visudo opens nano, I get unreasonably angry about it. I typed "visudo", not "nanosudo"
Vim user here: Nano is a good text editor, takes a lot less training to pick up and use, and it's surprisingly capable. If I'm teaching someone how to use the Linux terminal, I'm going to teach them Nano, because they already have enough to learn. Vim is a separate class all its own.

What about Micro users π₯²
nano for editing config files, emacs if I'm writing code... kwrite or joplin if I need a scratch pad or to share notes between devices respectively
I wish I could just edit text files as sudo with the default gnome text editor instead.

Nedit - was a great simple editor i discovered on SGI IRIX, still use it today. Also, emacs is in a class of itself, it's more OS than text editor π€£
sudo nano
