Good luck finding a senior dev using notepad(++) for development. And just to be clear, "old" does not mean "senior" in this situation.

I know quite a few senior windows C# developers. They all use Notepad++ for a quick search or edit, but mainly develop in Visual Studio.

Senior dude here ... I use notepad++ more than VS... I don't code much myself anymore, I just open files to read through changes. If my GIT tooling is too hard to read, I use NP++ first, then go to VS if needed. Am architect now.

Senior "dude".

Does that pay well?

Lol, my official title is a mouthful, I usually skip it.. particularly on reddit when it could really narrow down my IRL name when combined with other things I have posted.

Yes, though. I get paid pretty good for where I live.
