The fact that a minor update got released isn't a rare enough occurrence to warrant a highly-voted post on HN.
Snark aside, VSC has grown up quite a lot, very quickly. If you like Sublime, good for you, stick with it. But it looks like VSC is going to pick up support for more new things, faster. Personal favorite: support exists to plug in third-party debuggers and get debug tools/build errors inside VSC.

So, it's not as mature enough and still adds things regularly, including still struggling with speed issues? How often does Vim have updates released? Who even cares for most of them?
- Artemis2 10y agoWell, Sublime Text 3 is still a beta. https://github.com/vim/vim/releases https://github.com/vim/vim/releases
- coldtea 10y agoThat doesn't mean much, it's just a label. ST3 has been stable (and my main editor) for 2+ years now. React was 0.15 until recently, and Node was adopted by major companies like Microsoft at 0.xx versions.
- Artemis2 10y agoThe way people number their versions does not mean anything (React is actually in v15 now). 0.xx has no meaning, except if the developer of the software explicitly indicates it's unfinished. Version numbers are entirely subjective by default. I agree with you on the stability of Sublime Text, but the label beta has, on the opposite of version numbers, a consistent meaning: it's not finished.
