It better be way, way better than Sublime Text is the plan is to charge Panic prices. Their apps are best of breed but this is a crowded space and they’re competing with free.
- Gaelan 7y agoI mean, Sublime costs Panic prices. It just doesn't care that much if you abuse its trial. (Wait, maybe I'm misreading your comment. Are you trying to say "Sublime is free, so Nova will have to be way better to compete with Sublime" or "Sublime wasn't good enough to justify its price, so Nova will have to be way better than that to justify its price"?)
- JohnBooty 7y agoNot the parent poster, but I'd agree that Nova would have to be pretty close to revolutionary to even get me to consider it. People invest a lot of time into their existing text editors. For many people (myself included) a potential replacement would have to be more than a little better, because otherwise it's not worth the somewhat large cost (in terms of time spent on setup+mastery) of switching.
- coldtea 7y agoPanic also has a tendency to create something, and then neglect it for ages, which includes their previous editor... They just have too many products than what they can focus on...
