VSCode? It's got its fan base and it's quite vocal. Actually, Didn't VSCode collate the majority of the former Atom users, as Atom collated the majority of SublimeText before it?
- slowmovintarget 4y agoFirst, interesting (and proper) user of "collate." To me, until this moment, it meant basically "to sort," but I looked it up to see if I was wrong. It means to "collect and combine in order." Neat. I'm an editor vagabond. I went from Ed 4 to Notepad++ to JEdit to UltraEdit to TextPad to Sublime Text to Atom to VS Code. Of all of these, Sublime Text is the one I still use every day. TextPad on Windows was the other one that was sticky, though Sublime has replaced it. I kept dabbling with Emacs, kept knocking into vi flavors for "just getting it done." Perhaps it's time to find a home with Emacs and try to use it for everything. But there's always that next one... maybe Xi, maybe NightCode (nope), maybe Edita... Emacs and vi will still be there, and I'll probably pay for the next three versions of Sublime Text like have the first three.
- ocimbote 4y agoThanks for noticing. I had to double check as well :p I'm also on the lookout for my next "forever home" but I set the bar to only try a modal editor that acrually differs from Vim's modes. So, modal without vim-mode.
