Just use Notepad++

I think you misunderstand, the meme is pointing out that I was, at the time, using notepad fullscreen as a light source so I could see what I was doing while writing stuff down on paper at my desk. I think you'll agree that notepad is a slightly better light source than NPP

Genuinely, how do you guys still exist?

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

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.

Notepad++ has a certain classic "Back when Windows was cool" appeal.

VSCode is cumbersome with a photoshop-like startup and a welcome screen and project manager and blah blah blah for just wanting to see "What's in this file real quick..."

I used to like Atom while that was still a thing.

Now for taking notes or editing simple files, it's always Kate. Follows my dark theme too! :D
