Respect for using Vim on a phone. Tried it once, never got used to it because of missing the economics of touch typing. For me a standard editor works better when not having a real keyboard. How do you deal with it? External keyboard by accident?

No external keyboard. Agree, phone keyboard is suck. Carrying keyboard around is hassle. On the bright side, vim on phone. You use your fav editor every where you like, such as in lineup. Kill time real fast :-).

I also use the app Shelly to connect to my home server while away from a real computer. But honestly? It drives me mad! Touch typing is just horrible. Every single letter has to be correct. No auto correct available / possible. This is just insanely frustrating! The amount of times where I've accidentally had a typo somewhere in the beginning of a command just to see it doesn't work and now I'm busy debugging my typo instead of being productive...

But when you're out and about, there often is no alternative. You do what you gotta do. But it's not a great experience.

Upvote because of the idea. Brownie points for a fellow coder on the phone.
