>>108751828qrd?
>>108751863yet another opinionated leftist developer discovers that making his project open source means that people get to use his code.
>>108751885Can the n++ faggots even do anything about this?>Guys, all I wanted to do is to make Notepad++ available on mac and keep it open and free. I'm talking to Don. I really hope he will be ok with the name. It actually expands notepad++ brand to mac.>In coordination with Don Ho, the creator of the original Notepad++, I'll be evolving the branding of the macOS versionkek
>>108751885that's not what happenedthe problem was not the code but the trademark
>>108751954isn't the trademark open source aswell?
>>108751978nocode and trademarks/branding are separate
>>108751828notepad++ is malware, why would i want it on mac? i can't trust any software named notepad++.
>>108751828At least explain the drama if you insist on making a thread about it.
>>108752021>malwareHow? Just use the minimalist version that doesn't have the updater.
>>108752030Guy really wants the original dev to include his vibe-coded itoddler fork on notepad++ website and make it official.
>>108751828why don't they use vscodium like well-adjusted, intelligent people do?
The "Notepad++" trademark is only registered in FranceThis is a free for all and the vibecoderslopper should just register it in USA or something and piss on them kek
>>108751828isn't this guy a schizo about taiwan and ukraine? reason why his installer got infected with malware.
>>108752161Yes. He's proven himself to not be a serious, responsible developer/project owner by both his political sperging and getting pwned.Also refusing to cooperate with people that wanted to port his program to other platforms demonstrate this, too.>>108752021>>108752020>>108751978Yeah, trademark is in a silly way separate so malicious (f)oss owners can force forks to have another name and logo.>>108752109That's good but US recognizes un-registered trademarks and copyright too.
>switch to nvim>don't need to deal with Don Ho's faggotryfeelsgoodman
>>108752212Which text editors do you recommend on Windows?
N++ signed their own death warrant when they decided not to follow suite with Windows Notepad moving to AI first.I literally don't write notes anymore, I just vibe it with Copilot; direct integration with Notepad and the OS at large makes it essentially a direct extension of my cognitive capabilities. I think in ways N++ leftists cannot even fucking imagine.
>>108752249FAR Manager with pluginshttps://github.com/FarGroup/FarManager
>>108752346retard
>>108752249There's so many, depends on what you want. But vscodium is a decent starting point for beginners/NPP refugees.
just name it macpad++ or something other than notepad++ and be done with it, are modern devs so retarded they still have no idea how this shit is supposed to be done?
No means NO chuds...
>>108752249Windows support for the best Linux editor: Kate has gotten better, it's worth a try
>>108752357At least explain yourself
>>108752249Vim/Neovim or Emacs. Both have Windows versions and both are the ultimate destination in the text editor journey. I took the Nvim pill.
>>108752369good suggestionhttps://github.com/notepad-plus-plus-mac/notepad-plus-plus-macos/issues/69
>>108752373>n++>attractive girllul wut
>>108752369pretty much this imo>>108752249zed recently released its v1.0.0it's been decent for me so far
>>108751828I stopped using soÿpad++ when they went full>rapefugees welcome and don't use our stuff if you disagreeyour garden variety linux text editor has more features anyway
>>108752249there's also Geany if you want the same editor/IDE across linux, windows and mac

>>108752061>How?>He doesn't knowOh no no no. HAHAHAHAHAHA.>>108751863Vibe coder doesn't use their brain (because they're MORANS!), thinks naming Notepad++ Mac Port "Notepad++ for Mac" will be okay, when it is CLEARLY NOT going to be okay if you use your brain for all of FIVE MINUTES to understand WHY it wouldn't be.Gets pointed out that it's not okay. "Journalists" (Bloggers) don't do their due-diligence and do a heckin' scoop of a jouranlism and claim it's an official port to Mac when it isn't (because it's using the Notepad++ name, icon, and credits the original non-vibe-coder coder).Proceeds to have a melty because the non-vibe-coder coder slaps him down with "WTF are you doing? That's my IP shit, you can use the code, but you can't call it Notepad++."
>>108752670get lost chud
>>108752369of course that would be the simple solution, but the mac notepad++ guy is pretending to be retarded so he can keep using the name for as long as possible. he's trying to use the name to gain users. in a few months we'll hear about how he eventually put in malware or started charging money.
>>108752670>MORANShow ironic lmao
>>108752670>I would love to get your endorsement but I know that it's very new and it is too fast. I'll try to keep in sync with yours. The windows plugin ecosystem is still being ported to Mac. About 2/3 of plugins left to go. I will prep for the site and some naming changes. Give me a couple of weeks. My intention was to expand your brand. I really hope that at some point in the future you change your mind and see this as a positive growth for your brand.OH NO NO NO AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.>You must cease and desist>GIVE ME A FEW WEEKS!Hope the Vibe Slopper enjoys LITIGATION.
>>108752701>Litigation>Brand only registered in France>USA (where the slopper is from) doesnt give a pisskek, good luck with that freetard
>>108752675>CHUDYou're a little confused, but at least you have the spirit of Jesus Taking the Wheel?
>>108752731clanker response
>>108752249Who cares about drama, malware, sure that would be a problem.Just use a NP++ version from a year ago and you'll be fine. I haven't updated mine since like 8 years. It already does everything and has plugins.
Guys, all I wanted to do is to make Notepad++ available on mac and keep it open and free. I'm talking to Don. I really hope he will be ok with the name. It actually expands notepad++ brand to mac.I'm a developer and when I put Don on the authors page I never in my life had any intention to say that he was involved. It actually says that he wasn't but I wanted to give Don all credit for creating original version which Mac version was built on.
>>108752249VSCode is the normie friendliest one, Sublime still works fine, (Neo)vim and Emacs as well as all the new gen a editors like Helix and Zed all support windowsSo basically the same one as on linux
>>108752373>N++I keep reading that abbreviation as nigger++
>>108752346great choice, though the thing should be firewalled, it calls back home
>>108751828Why do winjeets cling to this garbage? Even Kate is better
>>108753941why the fuck is this a store app on windows? only the nightly is a normal installer.
Trademark more like gaymark
>>108753327The reason why Don Ho is pissed is because he wants control over distribution of the software so he can plaster unasked-for political statements in all future updates. The guy is obsessed about politics, like he's a CIA asset or something.
>>108752531This is the only correct answer
>>108752531Geany blew me away when I first tried it in 2008, and I have stuck with it ever since. Really the perfect balance between a comfortable programmer's editor, and a traditional IDE.
castrated trannyI replaced it with notepad4
>>108756518>Notepad4Notepad3 is vastly superior to that castrated slopfest trannyware.
Remember when Notepad++ was okay to use? It feels like that was such a long time ago, not that I miss it but it's been such a strange race to the bottom.
>>10875656210 years ago? Before Trump?
That was a fun read. Thanks for sharing OP.
>>108751828The NP++ developer and his army of fanbois are the worst type of people in open source, and computing in general. Pedantic, legalistic, passive aggressive, and hyperbolic retardation. No better than the average /pol/nigger, or the corposhill + AI spammers on here. I truly wish them death.
