Must have installed bad plugins. I’ve literally never had vs code crash.

Only thing Notepad++ does better for me is being able to open, like 1M+ line files.

Outside of that, I hate to admit because MS, but VS Code is solid-ish.

I've opened 2GB files in vim before without an issue. Takes a bit to load everything in memory, but after that it works flawlessly.

Yeah if I need to open up massive files (well not even that large, vscode really isn’t good for even slightly large files), I use Sublime text.

Yeah I can't remember vs code crashing, at least not more than once every few months

Right? I have had a hundred problems with extensions (pretty much anything with an embedded target: pycom, nrf connect, platformio) but never with code itself crashing
