I’ve routinely needed to open a 5GB text file on my computer before (previous job), and only some “apps” can do it. If we even call them apps lol. It’s just bloated web browser junk packaged to look like a native app. notepad++ solved this problem 20+ years ago. I agree it’s an uncommon use case but it’s kind of sad when an app struggles to open a file like that on a modern machine in 2024. Just sad.
