The only thing that keeps me from using it as my daily editor is the clipboard functionality in WSL (using Windows Terminal). The first problem was clipboard not working at all, after some updates and tweaks (aliasing xclip to a custom bash script) the clipboard worked. The second problem is yet to be resolved: copy/cut and paste ignores new lines, I haven't found a solution ... Any advice is appreciated!

I am in the same boat. Love micro, but the copy/paste newline issue in WSL/Windows Terminal is annoying.

that and it does seem to crash quite a bit.

+1 for micro. I do need to learn vim beyond simple stuff, but in the meantime, micro gets installed everywhere.

It is great. It should have been the default editor in some Linux distros that settled on nano!

but are there vim keybindings?

From the faq.

Does micro support Vi keybindings?

Currently micro does not have any sort of Vim emulation. However, this is the next major feature that is planned, so stay tuned.
