    CotEditor doesn’t get enough due. Completely Mac-native and open source.

  • Reflections on a Month with BBEdit and Nova

    Thanks for writing this up so beautifully. I'm an old Mac user and user Nova daily, mostly for Playdate development. It has been very unstable/crash-prone recently, agreed. The major crasher that lost me much work was fixed in a recent update, so I no longer want to delete the app but I would still appreciate it if they could take the accelerator off and fix all the crashers.

    I also have the following installed BBEdit (for some advanced commands only it can do), Sublime Text (for quick opening and searching of directories of text).

    My favourite editor: CotEditor https://coteditor.com (for it's unbelievable speed of launching, solid language/character-set support in particular Japanese; let down in only one way - it won't open folders of files). Highly recommended!

    CotEditor, which is like TextEdit except actually useful for non-text documents (e.g. I write a lot of Markdown in it).

    CotEditor - Plain text editor but with many more features and a clean macOS UI. Absolutely a must-have for basic file editing (e.g. Markdown).
  • Getting my first MacBook today (been PC for 25 yrs) and planned on using the native apps - any suggestions on 3rd party downloads?

    Some recommendations: - Find a better mail client, the default is archaic. - ProtonVPN truly speaks for itself. - AdGuard For Safari is unbeatable. - The Unarchiver, for all your unzipping needs. - Infuse or INAA for video media. - CotEditor for your coding/text editing. - Rectangle for app window snapping. - LuLu stops unauthorized outgoing connects. - Do Not Disturb, if you leave it unattended often. - Aerials is beautiful. Make it your screensaver.

    As others gave mentioned VSCode is probably the best replacement but for something less overkill I often use CotEditor. It’s downloaded via the App Store but is free, open source, apple silicon ready and also has a command line helper tool. https://coteditor.com
