Well I guess the point was what's the advantage of 'extremely lightweight', but VM with < 1GB tbh is probably a use case. Though still, running a GUI on a VM? Remote or local?
I'm a Vim man myself, anyway.
Far too easy to use. Vim 4 iife

iVim isn't that hard once you get used to its weirdness<esc>bcwunique modal ways<esc>:w
local. far easier to read and edit config files than (ugh) vim over ssh. This is on a local development server instance. I wouldn't run a gui on a remote, though I would use nano rather than vim or, if doing extensive edits, edit locally and scp up.
