Atom is awesome, but it feels like they are reinventing emacs only without terminal support and much slower.
I use both editors but find myself continuing to go back to emacs b/c of a few features that I can't do without.

I am also rather used to the command set now. To the point that it just feels natural to jump around a file with emacs. ace-jump-mode is also good. Even something as simple as subword-mode is awesome.
Really, TRAMP has been the killer feature for me lately. The way it enhances grep results is ridiculously useful.
I do think Atom has the potential to really go beyond what emacs has accomplished b/c more people know js/coffee than elisp, but emacs is also a moving target and has become a lot better than it was 10 years go.
