I get that it's open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting

I was using Atom, but that died. I work with both Python and Fortran, and VSCode works for my usecase, but I'm open to suggestions.

Pulsar was forked from Atom and lives on!

Didn't know about this, will definitely give this a shot. There's also Lapce, which doesn't use Electron and looks promising.

I almost see Pulsar as the anti-VSCode/Microsoft in a way. Microsoft slowed development and killed Atom in order to promote use of VSCode. Instead of letting it die we decided to keep it alive and offer it as a viable alternative. So in some sense it almost exists just to spite Microsoft's attempts to kill it.

Nice! I used atom for about a year before it was discontinued and switched to just using Kate. Definitely going to have to checkout pulsar, thanks for dropping it here.

I switched to Kate eventually myself. Using the KDE defaults where possible to reduce size encouraged me to do it

I switched to neovim. You can also use a text editor for more basic stuff
