Notepad and Notepad++ have never disappointed me.

Must have installed bad plugins. I’ve literally never had vs code crash.

Only thing Notepad++ does better for me is being able to open, like 1M+ line files.

Outside of that, I hate to admit because MS, but VS Code is solid-ish.

Yeah if I need to open up massive files (well not even that large, vscode really isn’t good for even slightly large files), I use Sublime text.

I've opened 2GB files in vim before without an issue. Takes a bit to load everything in memory, but after that it works flawlessly.

Yeah I can't remember vs code crashing, at least not more than once every few months

Right? I have had a hundred problems with extensions (pretty much anything with an embedded target: pycom, nrf connect, platformio) but never with code itself crashing

Are you guys seriously writing code on windows? I thought you were joking!?

My company forces us. And we write code that runs on Linux machines. πŸ’€

I've been in your situation, too, and decided to annoy the fuck out of them about it until the gave me a Linux machine. Or at least a Mac.

Seems idiotic to essentially get Windows just to use SSH.

I use nano. Also, green is the tastiest color of crayon.

If Vim and EMacs are Gork//Mork, then Nano is the emperor.

I need to reconfigure vim and learn how to get the plugins up properly. I use lunarvim but inconsistently.

I use Notepad++ as my main editor anyways. It seems less distracting to me than VSCode.

Emacs crashes sometimes when I write rust so I use vs code for now. How do I see the crash report? I researched a little but couldn't find.
