Or they have worked on full-fledged IDE's like VS 6, which starts up quickly and is super responsive even on period hardware .
Oh how the tables are turned... Coming from VS2008-2010, it's weird to see someone said Visual Studio is fast
I use it daily for .net coding, while i use VS code for everything else.
Everything[0] by Voidtools as a Windows search replacement. It makes search practically instant. Now that Windows search often fails to turn up even my most used files (what happened to Windows search? Was it intentionally nerfed?), Everything has become a necessity for me.

I am not joking. I found out about it when it stopped working due to bing outrage and had to do registry fix to make it work again.

Goland - an IDE that specializes in Golang projects. The following features have saved me 100s of hours: - Being able to run tests/benchmarks directly in a test file via either clicking the play button or using a keyboard shortcut - It’s refactor support - automatically getting imports ordered and code formatted on save - multicursor support - and even more! One of the few IDEs I would actually pay for if my company…
vscode supports all of these and is free. The go language server has been buggy in the past but it's been improving quickly.

As an emacs user, I view multi-cursor as suitable for only a subset of macro usage. Macros are inspectable, editable, savable, able to be applied across files, easily used a variable N times. My typical pattern is something like: define it, try it, adjust it, then apply variable times (including “infinite until error”), maybe save 1% of them. That often takes less time to do than it just took me to describe. I use ma…
> Macros are inspectable, editable, savable, able to be applied across files, easily used a variable N times. In my experience with multicursor, I don't need to be able to "inspect" the operation as the act of typing it is inspection in and of itself. Sure they aren't saveable and thus aren't editable (but you admit this is a very rare use case - I can't recall needing that, ofc you often don't know when to want what…
If the use case is “every day, download this file from a server and process it using pre-defined text editing commands”, multi-cursor doesn’t help you in any way that I can see.
I admit there’s a huge overlap in use, but when someone asks for macros and a product person says “how about multi-cursor instead?” I think it’s fair to raise the cases where someone asking for macros might actually want macros.
Easy to see the traffic flow between apps/apis. It helps to read the raw http req/resp, debug and replay the request with modified parameters.
Vivaldi browser - Amazing for productivity, custom search engines, configurable, can be controlled by keyboard. I can search in company ishare/OneDrive via URL bar etc.
Total commander - I use quite minimal interface, it actually looks more like fman. I use the folder jumplist a lot which saves a lot of time. I have some custom buttons (open in gVim for instance) and lynx like movement.
Linux:
Terminator - Terminator with splits, nice font rendering, easy GUI configuration
Arch - I can also put it to the cost me 100 hours list :] but AUR definitely saves time compared to Ubuntu dependency hell.
NimbleText https://nimbletext.com/ has saved me so much time. I use it to generate sql from spreadsheets and other one-off code generation from data.
https://fishshell.com/ for sure Just having sensible defaults on a shell works wonders on my day-to-day productivity. Add a couple of aliases for productivity and off you go. abbr --add s "git status" abbr --add gap "git add --patch" abbr --add gco "git checkout" abbr --add gd "git diff" alias recent="git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate refs/heads/ --format='%(color:yellow)%(refname:short)|%(color:bold green)%(com…
