My experience of Atom after having been using it exclusively for the past 6 months or so: Awesome editor, even though the experience is definitely better on the powerful computer I have at work than on my personal 4-year old laptop. I like the plugins, I like the themes, how customizable everything is. The only aspect where I've found Atom to be dramatically inefficient is search/replace. Feed it a big enough file (and it doesn't even have to be THAT big) and the whole editor can freeze for minutes. I am not sure I understand why that is, but I sure wish this is an area the community will help make better in the future. A community that I would like to thank heartfully for their efforts and dedication, Atom has turned into a fine editor.
