All right /g/. I'm done with this meme text editor. Takes too long to start up and takes up too much cpu.

So give me a better text editor. Requirements:

Must be GUI. (I'm already fine with vim for terminal work)
Must be free/open source. (no sublime)
Ideally extensible.
Must be better than memey webdev Atom.

I personally use vim for all my text needs but if you want gui just use gedit or something like that

Sublime is the only thing worth considering, just get over the non-free aspect. Atom is the best sublime alternative.

I'm enjoying brackets

Just use Visual Studio code or Brackets.

Atom is shit.

If you're really that anal about FOSS then Atom's your best (or least worst) choice.

Notepad++
Themes, extensions, code highlighting, open source, dunno about Linux compatibility, I ran it on Linux way back but not sure if that was with wine, if worst comes to worst, make your own, even if it's just a html file in which you can edit text

wine for an texteditor on linux please punch yourself.

>replacing a bad web based editor with a bad web based editor

>>57968316
Try Notepadqq, if you are willing to use a new editor. It's basically Notepad++ but made with Qt.

Also >>57968456 is a valid choice if you just don't like classical CLI editors for their derprecated input system.

GVim

I don't know why people use terminal Vim, GVim is just better

Unless you don't have an X server running or you are not editing in a remote SSH session you have no reason not to use GVim

>the only difference between Atom and VSCode is the botnet

VSCode does not call home as far as I know, and you didn't mention the HUGE performance difference. VSCode behaves like Sublime Text in terms of performance. It's amazing considering it uses web technology too.

VSCode does call home. It's opt-out in both editors.
Also, the performance difference is not that huge. It's "barely usable" in VSCode vs "not usable" in Atom.

>>57984973
It's exactly like Atom. Except with less addons and another joke tier software company behind it.

>>57982207
What if you like having one window only? I use tmux panes and windows to keep ALL my work in the same window. GVim would break this. Although GVim is way better on Windows.

>>57982685
Lol atom and vs code should be the same as sublime but plastic instead. Oh and they weigh a ton.
