ST has been out for six years. That's not going to be comparable to emacs (mid 1970's - now) or vi/vim (1976/1991 respectively). I haven't jumped on Atom, or any of the other brand new editors because I want to know they'll have some staying power, but I don't think 5+ years is short enough for me to be concerned. I'm certainly not changing editors every month. I also do most of my editor exploration in my free time, and it's fun for me, so it's not really a waste of time (again, for me, in that context). I should say that I can't really settle on VIM right now because I'm doing full time .net work at this point. I still use it reasonably often when I'm mucking about in C at home, and I used it as my primary editor for at least five years prior to that, but my use-case was me trying to get a decent haskell environment up and running on a fresh linux VM as quickly as I could. ST2 worked really well for that.
