minus-square@Mr_Crash_Davislink2•23 hours agoAgreed, coming from regular Notepad there’s a lot going on there. The whole point of Notepad was a quick and dirty text editor. If I needed that many options for what I’m writing I’ll just fire up Word instead.
minus-square@SpaceNoodlelink2•22 hours agoThat’s why I like Sublime - it’s powerful enough to be my main code editor, and clean enough to jot down some quick notes.
minus-square@Mr_Crash_Davislink1•21 hours agoHuh, never heard of Sublime before. I’ll give that a try!
minus-square@SpaceNoodlelink1•21 hours agoThe developer is also Australian, so it’s still a good option if you’re boycotting US products.
