Can someone describe the benefits of sublime over vscode or even atom(I find atom to be a lot slower than vscode)?
So many people swear by sublime so I assume there must be something I'm missing. At the same time I love the simplicity of adding plugins in vscode, and sharing settings through a git gist is great as well.
Sublime is just so much more responsive than it's Electron counterparts. They all have tradeoffs so if the increased resource usage for Code and Atom isn't issue for you then you may not see the need for Sublime. Additionally if you prefer the the ease of use of the plugins in Atom/Code, configuring them with the GUI, compared to the editing of JSON files to configure Sublime plugins might seem a bit annoying.
I used Atom for a while because it "just worked" but I switched to Sublime on a cheaper, low powered laptop and the difference in resource consumption is very apparent. Almost everything ran smoother while Sublime was open compared to Atom. The plugins were a bit more involved to get working but for that use case it was worth it.
