What's your favorite text editor?

Tim Culverhouse - May 21, 2021

With the release of Sublime Text 4 today, I'm curious...

Indieweb: what is your text editor of choice?

Personally, I've been a Windows user most of my life and stuck with Notepad++. Ever since my wife convinced me to go back to Mac, I've been using VS Code since I still use a PC for work and wanted something that would work on that too.

I gave Sublime a quick test today and it is way faster, so I may make the switch!

I have been using Sublime since v2 and still really liking it. v4 has been nice so far, but I haven't dug into the new features yet.

I’ve been using Emacs for the last 5 years or so. Before that was Vim. I actually use Spacemacs, a flavour of Emacs that uses Vi-like keybindings.

It has an unfortunately steep learning curve, but I like it because it is libre software that has been around for almost 50 years, and a huge ecosystem and community has grown around it.
