Given the way the guy who "ported" Notepad++ to macOS is behaving, it's hard to think of any actual altruistic reasons to do any of this. If Don Ho wanted to port Notepad++ to macOS with LLMs, he could have just as easily done it himself and arguably achieved a superior result.

This whole endeavour on aletik's part seems like vanity at best and probably just a malware vector down the line regardless.

My concern is the ones that didn't get caught and are waiting to pull a Jia Tan.
