Same thing here, except I did Sublime -> Atom -> VSCode.
Atom/VSCode are open-source and not written in C++, so they can evolve a lot quicker, with many more contributors than Sublime's one-man-army.
- pinum 9y agoBut instead they're written in Node with HTML and CSS as a UI. And honestly, for a text editor, that's a bit perverse. I want my editors fast and lightweight.
- geoelectric 9y agoIt's a spectrum for me. I use Vim for most light things, and a Jetbrains IDE for most very heavy things. Right in the middle is something like Atom or VS Code. The load times and overall weight of an Electron app aren't bad in that context.
- konart 9y ago>many more contributors Which is not always results in something good tbh.
- hoorayimhelping 9y agoBelieve the main fellow behind Sublime hired the main fellow behind Package Control, which is the reason for the steady updates over the past year or so.
- sotojuan 9y agoConsidering Sublime's speed, I trust the one man show more than random contributors.
- petre 9y agoVS Code doesn't even remember window size. I used Sublime for 4 years and I'm trying Atom now. It works fine and has nice features but it's sluggish.
