How does micro compare to nano?

It’s 1,000 times larger.

better ootb experience with syntax highlighting, sane keybindings, plugin system, and other little things nano lacks.

Nano has had syntax highlighting for quite a while.

Its keybindings also make sense if your brain is still stuck in the '90s. If not, they’re literally printed at the bottom of the terminal.

If I need plugins, I’m not gonna be fucking around with a terminal text editor.

What are these “other little things?” Certainly not “probably already installed on your system.”
