It's kinda like using chromium instead of chrome, isn't it? Don't use either; use firefox.
No idea what the editor equivalent would be though... Emacs or vim maybe? Next to noone uses it, but it has so much more potential, if only it where widely adopted.
Yes but no, I meant in society overall. In my group of friends some use vim but weirdly even some rhel-admins stuck with nano. I've yet to meet someone using emacs irl, but i haven't been looking either :P
