Didn't a notepad++ updater get blamed in the recent telecom hack?

Also side note. I used to side eye my developers if they pulled that out to do the job. The number of times I had to correct and troubleshoot their work because errors were introduced from notepad++ not handling Unix/Dos copypasta line ending properly or common things an IDE would catch would drive me to creating a list of approved editors. I had generally approve vim, emacs, vscode, and those leading for the language in use. And Notepad++ was never it.

I dropped it for similar reasons, vscode, and the charm series ides were more reliable

I had some python devs that loved charm. I had no issue with their use of it. I'd been using emacs for so long I couldn't give it up. Gave vscode some time but it just felt like a pretty version of emacs with aspirations to be like emacs when it grew up. 🤣🤣🤣

feels like all the python devs love pycharm

most of my dev is for work so I tend to use whatever ide works best with the stack
