For me, at least when I tried the beta, the sore points where: 1. The linting plugin support was woefully broken and often hung up the editor, that may be better now, but it seems to be a single thread for all plugins. For Vim I use syntastic and find it works great. 2. Visual mode (using vintage) isn't great, block selection pretty much didn't work. There was a plugin that could do multiselect based on regex, but for the most part that wasn't what I needed. 3. Speed wasn't great but it was a beta, I'm tempted to give it another go. To be honest though, at least for RoR work Rubymine seems like a better editor if you are looking for IDE features. It had a pretty decent Vim mode too, no worse than Vintage. 4. Split panes were not great either, I need good keyboard shortcuts to open into vertical and horizontal splits quickly and easily or they are basically useless. Almost every new editor fails at this and makes me wonder if the developers have ever used a decently powerful editor. If editor developers are not going to learn from the "good parts" of Vim and Emacs then I'm afraid we will never really move away from them. I don't even use a fraction of the power available to me from Vim yet, but to switch editors I have to be able to find sufficient functionality to make up for what I do use. Believe me I'd love to find an editor other than Vim that works for me.
