Ubuntu: .nano_history Permission denied
If you do man nano, you’ll see there’s a /etc/nanorc config file. Edit this to comment out #set historylog.
This will prevent sudo nano commands from creating the root users .nano_history in your home directory, which nano can’t read when called by your user account. After commenting it out, then delete it with sudo rm .nano_history.
