Yeah, I now realise it could be very useful! I think Notepad in Windows 11 has tabs now but it's still super barebones.

I never understood why people liked Notepad++ so much. I always just used Notepad for simple text file editing and quick notes so I didn't see the point.

But I recently switched to POP!_OS and the text editor has lots of features Notepad doesn't have (such as line numbers, indentation, and I can select the (programming) language I am writing the document in) and I found myself really liking these features.

Oh this is awesome! I really missed Atom and VSC just isn't the same.

Thank you for sharing!

Yeah it took me a while to figure out it was about those two apps. I thought OP meant any app.

[–] Panda@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Ah okay! Thanks for letting me know!

Oh this looks pretty cool! Has anyone bought it and do you feel like the audio is worth it?

No, but only because when I try to it gives me a blank screen and no option to actually make the payment. Once that's been fixed I'll definitely pay like I did for Boost for Reddit!

[–] Panda@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Loving it so far! I'm glad Boost is back! I have one problem, though! I'd love to pay to remove the ads but when I press Remove Ads I get a screen with a blue background and "Remove Ads" right in the middle of the screen but there doesn't seem to be a way to actually pay to have the ads removed!

Other than that, it works really well. Feels very responsive, too!

Yes!!! I'm loving it so far! It's so responsive and familiar!

I do the same. My husband calls me a 'game hopper' as I move from game to game and rarely finish one. I mean, I do usually get back to them. Eventually. But if it's a game with a story it's going to be hard to get back into it after so many weeks or months. Which means that it seems more fun to start over... meaning that I tend to stop playing around the same point. So yeah, it's hard to finish a game. :D

I mean, I really do want to 'be able to' finish games (I mean yeah I can...it's just hard haha), but on the other hand, if I got what I wanted out of it, it's not a waste of time or money. Plus I'm getting to experience a lot of different games instead of a select number of games, so it's not that bad. :)

I'm the same with books. I'm finding it very hard to finish a book, but what does help is using a read tracker app (the one I use is actually called ReadTracker. It's on Android) to track my progress. Basically I can just start a timer when I start reading and when I'm done I stop the timer, log my progress and the app will give me an estimate on how long it would take me to finish the book (based on my past progress). This is nice, because knowing that it I keep going I'll finish the book in 3 hours feels more doable than not knowing it at all. Plus I really like graphs and statistics and these kinds of apps give me that as well.

It's fine if you don't care and don't care if your art or music you've produced is stolen. But I hope you understand that there are many people who do appreciate art and who, after spending a big chunk of their precious time making their art, they want to have a say on where, when and how their art is used. Because it's something they created and put their heart into.

If you spend days, weeks, months, working on a project, even if it's not art-related, and someone walks by and steals what you've worked hard for and claims it as their own or does whatever they want with it without your consent, how would you feel about that? Do you feel like anyone should just be allowed to do that? If you spent that much time working on something and it only takes a few seconds for someone to steal or copy what you made and then starts earning money off of that while you're not getting anything in return, would you feel like your hard work was in vain, or would you be okay with that?
