Still using nvi on Slackware.
No plugins. No syntax highlighting. Just speed, predictability, and classic vi behavior, even with multi-GB files.
I wrote a short guide explaining why nvi still matters and how its architecture enables fast, low-memory editing.

🎂 Happy Birthday, Slackware!
On this day in 1993, Patrick Volkerding released Slackware 1.0, the oldest Linux distro still maintained!
Still simple, still solid, still Slackware.
