"VSCode for all the normies" ... feels weird. Maybe it's true. But I feel like VSCode rose 1:1 with Typescript, and I kind of resent it because I associate it with script kiddies around me cargo-culting React in places it isn't needed and writing thousands of lines of overcomplicated javascript to "manage state" on pages that don't even need to have any.
It's also noticeably slower than Sublime, which makes switching hard.
But "Williamsburg corpo-hipster" feels off the mark. To me Sublime aligns more around the "JS minimalist" camp, which overlaps a lot with the "bootstrapped and profitable" crowd.
