While Atom was Mac-only, VSCode was eating their lunch.

It's too little, too late now.

What do you mean? Atom has always been available for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

...ever tried actually using it on Windows? Like a year ago it got to ok-ish usable. A bit before that even on most Linuxes it had crappy performance.

Again, I like Atom's hackability, and mainly avoid it because the ecosystem of plugins is so full of halfly owkring abandonware

First I've heard of this. I used Atom for a few years on windows and ubuntu without any issues except opening very large files.
