OP’s vile views aside - this does seem interestingly politicized.
I don’t know if Notepad++ have a history of creating commemorative versions. Good on them if they do. However, if this is uncommon, it’s worth noticing. AFAIK, we aren’t at an anniversary?
Personally, I think acknowledgements of sad events are generally a good thing. Helps remember & learn from history. But they absolutely can be propagandized through strategic use.
On another note, I really like Notepad++. I swap between it and Sublime. Both great.
There are versions listed things like v8.8 “we are with ukraine”, v8.7.3 “leaving X for bluesky”, v8.7 “support Taiwans return to the UN”, 8.3.3 “make apps not war”, v6.7.4 “je suis charlie edition”, and lots lots more.
Not every version has something like this, but a good minority do. There are a number more related to China. The author appears to speak English, French, and Chinese, with their LinkedIn being in French, so i assume either has Chinese ancestry/family or very interested in China
