Always nice to have a meme affirm that you’re not the only one out there.

Exactly. Using my computer late at night always feels like I’ve starred at the sun lol.

Do y’all not at least have a night now setting? I have one that some the screen and makes everything a slightly warmer color.

I’m a dim lighting person in general, so I have all my monitor settings tuned down and night mode on 24/7. No more screen headaches.

Genuinely, how do you guys still exist?

Obviously just my opinion, but a modern editor like VS code does everything better and if you want to go the other way vim does everything and more. I just don’t see why someone chooses notepad++ any time after about 2010

If notepad is enough for OP (who are probably just editing .txt files), VSCode will be an overkill

I use vscode for project work. I use notepad++ for general notes and all other ad-hoc editing. I feel like my workspace would be too cluttered otherwise.

NPP is great for all sorts of things, not just code. Im sure Vim is fine but I dont care to learn it, it looks like a pain in the ass to learn. People don’t make memes about how to exit NPP.

Why the hell would I use something other than notepad or ++ for editing YAML, TXT, JSON, etc.? Lightweight and does everything I need it to.

It’s also super useful for pulling up and actually, you know, notig something down real quick without worrying about formatting

Notepad++ has a certain classic “Back when Windows was cool” appeal.

VSCode is cumbersome with a photoshop-like startup and a welcome screen and project manager and blah blah blah for just wanting to see “What’s in this file real quick…”

I used to like Atom while that was still a thing.

Now for taking notes or editing simple files, it’s always Kate. Follows my dark theme too! :D

I think you misunderstand, the meme is pointing out that I was, at the time, using notepad fullscreen as a light source so I could see what I was doing while writing stuff down on paper at my desk. I think you’ll agree that notepad is a slightly better light source than NPP

I always wonder how people in ordinary settings open their phones on magnetar brightness. Like, do you just not have optic nerves anymore?
