I’ve used VS Code for a long time, but have recently grown weary of Microsoft’s approach to OSS. I’ve checked out VS Codium which seems like it might be a great option.

What text editor are you using?

    Cream is gVim, but with many features that should make editing easier for Vim beginners
    i will try this out - - rationale :
    .1) only 1/3 of “Kate” 's footprint (16MB download, 74MB on HDD ) on xubuntu 20 lts
    .2) code folding (collapse and expand) and so many features even before plugins.

    just yell at me if this is a huge mistake !

      Kate and anything KDE is HUGEEEEEE. I hate KDE and won’t look twice at any program now that starts with the dreaded K.

        My first computer had 3584 bytes of RAM, the O.S. was 16kB, so my feeling of “huge bloat” start at very small numbers 😆 !

          Out of curiosity, which computer and operating system did you have at the time?

            Commodore VIC-20
            Such a great computer compared to the Timex Sinclair 1000 😆 !
