I avoid VS Code like the plague, been resisting it for years now, I still have the scars of ie6 to know no MS product can be trusted. Not to mention how bloated it already is, uses Electron to function, I can already imagine its core engineers sitting somewhere similar to an XP background sipping on ice tea and saying to themselves "who needs to optimize code editors, devs have millions of cores anyway" the phrase "compile to native" was never uttered in their blue and green background life. So no I'm not going to use a freaking browser to write code in no matter how much the hn hivemind really wants me to.
Sublime has been sublime for over a decade that I've been using it, I prefer version 3 and still have all the old packages/themes compatible with it. I have my favorite theme Afterglow. I've made so many changes to it, there is a command on save in every project folder I have for things like quick deploying apps be it a quick npm build + rsync or more complex capistrano prod deploy command, or sending a ctrl signal to a sock file to have chatgpt's response appear after asking it anything and pressing cmd+s in any open .md file. It's glorious seeing its response stream right there and then.
Screw people making bloated IDEs and feel sorry for people who use them because they don't know any better.
Sublime is pure, extremely quick to search or load massive files, I often have over 20 folders/windows open each with hundreds of dual column tabs. Never have to close it because it's running out of memory or bogging down my system, never. It's written well, the person who made it cares for writing good code and making good software. That's all you really need to know.
Sublime is the way to go and will most likely will be for the next 10 years at least for me.
