I use Sublime Text and VSCode depending on what my needs are. I'm happy with both, but both have different strengths. Sublime Text is great for quick jobs. Looking at a large log file, pretty-printing a JSON snippet, URLdecoding a bunch of URLEncoded text, writing a one-off shell script, etc, is all quick and easy with Sublime Text. One of my favourite things is to use the multiple cursors feature to quickly construct a shell script - think of taking a list of a dozen IDs and constructing a series of 'grep' commands to look at a log file. VSCode is great for longer-lived jobs. Currently I'm working on a bigish Python script to sync data from a handful of source systems to a cloud service. Using VSCode for this sort of development works decently for me, though I'm sure I'm not using it to its full potential at all.
