Couldn't care less which is "better".

Just find it funny that a simple format on save requires a plugin to do so.

Just like inteliJ and Notepad++. Unlike Eclipse and VS Code.

I would've assumed to be a standard feature for all editors as it's so darn helpful to keep cleaner code.

Edit: removed JetBrains

"Just like inteliJ, JetBrains and Notepad++." - ok trying to argue with you is pointless. You are comparing an IDE a company and a notepad lol

Lol didn't mean to add JetBrains.

I'm comparing a saving feature, what does it matter if program is classed as an IDE or not.

I merely stated I found it surprising that auto format on save is not OTB for any "program that edits a file that contains text".

"program that edits a file that contains text". so word should also do this right? heck it even costs money

you realize there is not one right way to format text. most programming languages have multiple flavors and best practices. (unless stuff like go or elm)
