    It’s worth finding the best text editor if you’re using it all day long imo

      VSCode is the best for me, simple, good UI, extensions, 0 setup required, can run on practically anything created after the dinosaur age (early 2000s).

        Yeah… and these criteria depend on the editor + use case combo. Hence, the discussion and excitement around text editors

        Pretty much. But some people end up wanting to configure and tweak the thing just so they “can work”, when in reality they never actually use any of those tweaked things

        Sometimes, it feels like people that spend too much time glorifying text editors are just trying to justify why they’re using a bad one.
