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. 💀
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.
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.
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 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.
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
Yeah I can’t remember vs code crashing, at least not more than once every few months
I give it… an hour before someone mentions
viorcatas the true old wayed. ed is the standard editor.

In case anyone wants to compile from source
Brother, come join us in the church of Emacs
Hersey, the church of vim is superior
I use nano. Also, green is the tastiest color of crayon.
If Vim and EMacs are Gork//Mork, then Nano is the emperor.
I feel like helix is the LDS church of the editor world.
I do all my coding in the cloud, via Google docs 😎
The Powershell ISE, it burns us!
Counterpoint, vim :3
I need to reconfigure vim and learn how to get the plugins up properly. I use lunarvim but inconsistently.
Same, but with nano.
Using a UI? We can go lower
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.
