I even use VIM on my phone (termux).

I tried various GUI text editors on Android, but they tend to be buggy or hard to navigate. Then there's the fact that I can just open a tmux session, detach, ssh into my phone and attach it.

I've been using vim since it was just vi and I can't even begin to think about using it on a virtual keyboard!

The idea of editing more than a shitpost on my phone is terrible.

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 11 months ago

I usually use my phone in landscape. It feels better that way. At least for me.

Do you have the keyboard split in landscape? As soon as I go landscape in termux I can't see the terminal. Also I've tried vim on mobile and have to commend you for doing it more than once lol.

Nope. The space is indeed limited, but it's better than limiting the terminal width too much.

Very neat. Love that you do so much with android!

Hacker's Keyboard is a good Android keyboard for doing terminal stuff. It adds a lot of the keys you need to efficiently work in terminal. Only Android keyboard worth using.
