If you haven't tried our Sublime plugin recently, all I can do is urge you to give it another shot. My primary editor is Sublime Text 3, so I know how bad it used to be. If you do find issues, please report them! We can't fix bugs we don't know about.
When compared to screen sharing, Floobits has significant advantages. The biggest is that you don't have to use the same editor. Atom users can pair with users of Sublime Text, Vim, Emacs, etc. Since everyone gets to use their favorite, highly-customized tools, it makes switching "drivers" much more pleasant. Another benefit is that you don't have to stare at the same code in lock-step. People can "fork off" and look at separate files. I find it useful even when pairing in person. I can use my own themes, my tiny fonts, my Dvorak keyboard layout... all without bothering anyone else. Likewise, anyone pairing with me can use their own esoteric dev environment without bothering me. In short, it eliminates many of the compromises that pairing typically forces on devs.
