kp25on Atom Editor for Sublime Text Users

I didn't mean that way, open source wins over closed source every time; Atleast Atom has lot of contributors and being pushed very quickly, which has something of around 155 releases in a year (from public beta to stable 1.0). That's really a good sign, not sure if it continues; if it does, it's going to be really good editor in the long run.

kp25on Atom Editor for Sublime Text Users

Agree with you, No Arguments about that. With Github being behind the Atom, just being positive that it might actually win over sublime.

kp25on Atom Editor for Sublime Text Users

Atom v1.0 is lot better than beta releases, but not as good as Sublime. Atom is open source unlike Sublime which is closed source, so in the long run atom is definitely going to be the winner. For Now, Sublime is much better than Atom and there is lot of gap in terms of performance. Lets hope, Atom gets better & better with releases.
