That depends a lot on when they started.
When I first installed a distribution where the base system only came with nano instead of standard editors, I was very confused (and very disappointed that this whas what they'd come up with as a "friendly" interface).
well, like the parent of my comment said, nano is a lot easier to use than vim or emacs. nano is much more like DOS edit or stuff like that. there are many memes about not being able to quit Vim, etc
