Yet so many still migrate to VSCode which is electron based.
So maybe the difference you value isn’t valued enough to be worth it for most authors.

- Kovah 8y agoYou are comparing apples with pears. Sublime can't be compared to VS Code because the former is basically an advanced editor while the latter is an IDE (like PhpStorm or Atom). And I highly doubt that many users switching from Sublime to VS Code. They use one or the other for a specific reason, like a blazing fast and distraction free editing experience in Sublime - something you do not have in VS Code or any other IDE, imo.
- wilsonnb3 8y agoThe line between advanced text editor and lightweight IDE is basically non existent. Plenty of former sublime users are on VS code now.

I love how performant yet, feature-packed and extensible it is, and since I keep my notes in Markdown format, the `yzhang.markdown-all-in-one` extension is really useful.

- wilsonnb3 8y agoThe person I responded too was saying that Sublime and VS Code are incomparable because they are different types of software. I was disagreeing with his distinction between advanced text editors and lightweight IDEs.
