Obviously just my opinion, but a modern editor like VS code does everything better and if you want to go the other way vim does everything and more. I just don’t see why someone chooses notepad++ any time after about 2010
I use vscode for project work. I use notepad++ for general notes and all other ad-hoc editing. I feel like my workspace would be too cluttered otherwise.
NPP is great for all sorts of things, not just code. Im sure Vim is fine but I dont care to learn it, it looks like a pain in the ass to learn. People don’t make memes about how to exit NPP.
Genuinely, how do you guys still exist?

If notepad is enough for OP (who are probably just editing .txt files), VSCode will be an overkill

Why not “geany” ? It’s lightweight and have great functionality
Why the hell would I use something other than notepad or ++ for editing YAML, TXT, JSON, etc.? Lightweight and does everything I need it to.
It’s also super useful for pulling up and actually, you know, notig something down real quick without worrying about formatting
