For almost all users, especially beginners, nano is just simpler faster and better. A lot of distributions are bundling it, and I am finding indeed systems without vim at all.
I’ve been using nano for 10+ years. Found micro and it is superior. Had to alias nano so that it opens micro instead, though. Hard to break such habits.
Ok i think i overeacted. I couldn’t figure out how to exit it, so i assumed it was like vim. Needed to exit Termux manually (which i hate) but the ctrl+s & q is easy. Will consider it another option to remember like moving from cat to bat
I’m surprised there aren’t more distros that come packaged with it. If someone’s used a graphical text editor in the past decade, then they know how to use micro. The only distro I know of that has it by default is Garuda.

Although most of the times while vim is not installed vi is. Even often together with nano.
Man I tried to use vi once because I started with vim and wanted to see what all it was before, and holy shit vim really is IMPROVED
Especially for beginners,

I hate itI could see that if you’re more skilled at something like vim.

cattobatAh, gotcha. Yeah the keybindings are very sensible especially for people coming from Windows. I do think it’s better than Nano for newcomers.
