The headline feature of nano is that it has basically zero learning curve, which makes it great for quick edits to config files, but this isn't very interesting to someone who has already invested time to become proficient in a more powerful editor.

In hacker culture this "hate" is typically tongue-in-cheek hyperbole whose payload is a genuine opinion.
Any actual anger might be a mix of fear of becoming obsolete and fear of cultural decay from newcomers not grokking the old ways. But at that point it's hardly about text editors anymore.

@Parienve @nixCraft Oh I realize that nano is generally easier. Just don't see why that directly translates to large amounts of hate.
