I was on a Mac until a month ago and I never had any of the issues you're having. Some of the behavior you mention is also by design. P.S.: what's a good editor for the Mac in your opinion, then? Sublime Text is good and native, but the file explorer shows folders first instead of folder content mixed like everywhere else on macOS--and that's _actually_ infuriating.

You mean these things weren't happening, or they were but they didn't bug you? :P > what's a good editor for the Mac in your opinion, then? I use Coda 2. It does too much with its built-in terminal and MySQL client and Git client and FTP client and manuals, but it's mostly possible to just use it as a code editor and ignore the rest. (The one thing that it doesn't have built in that I wish it did is a GDB debugger.) It was pretty crashy right after High Sierra was released, but the developers eventually ironed those out.

  Jesus, Coda!? So you're using an outdated editor because you don't like VS Code's scrollbars (which can be themed, btw)? It's a dead product.

    Dead? What's your source for this claim? https://library.panic.com/releasenotes/coda2/ https://library.panic.com/releasenotes/coda2/

      It's maintained. It hasn't changed in 5 years.

        Fair enough. I don't need much else from a code editor that already started out pretty great. I mean, by your standard, how much has vi changed over the last 35 years or so? Is vi dead?

        Vi is feature-complete, Coda is obsolete. Totally different things.
