I've been using jEdit for probably around 18 years until around a year ago when I fianlly switched to VSCode because, unfortunately, it just couldn't keep up with all the modern development in the dev tools space.

There are two features I really miss from jEdit:

* "dumb" autocomplete that will include any word in any open buffer, even if it's a different type (html/css/js). VSCode kindo of has word based autocomplete, but expected matches are just not there on third of teh time.

* HyperSearch (search result in the sidebar) when searching in the current buffer only. So much better than having one search mode for single buffer, and a completely different one when serching through multiple files.
