minus-square grandel ( @grandel@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilink6•7 months agoI’ve switched from NPP years ago. Can somebody please explain why it’s so popular?
minus-square m-p{3} ( @mp3@lemmy.ca ) linkfedilink5•7 months agoIt’s snappier and more private than VSCode at the very least.
minus-square Azzy ( @AzzyDev@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink3•7 months agoidk why people don’t just use codium instead
minus-square IrritableOcelot ( @IrritableOcelot@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink2•7 months agoBecause of the snappiness – codium is no faster than code. For me, NPP is used for making single-word changes to a bunch of files in a row–like vim, but a GUI.
