Sublime Text 3.0

I concur with this. I'm appreciative of Atom -- and recommend it to folks who aren't professional programmers and can't imagine paying for a text editor -- and I've heard similar great things about VS Code, but ST and its ecosystem has just been so dependable for me. It was inconvenient to switch over from TextMate to ST initially, but ended up being a great move overall. I haven't yet seen anything on the horizon that would seem like the next phase from ST for me.

I left VIM after 20 year to VS Code. I find that the ecosystem at VS Code to be the best I have ever seen. Great job by Microsoft and I use it on my Linux box all day.

Vim code in VS code works very well (and integrates commonly used vim extension such as 'surround'). You can have the best of both worlds.

I should have stated that I still use VIM mode and bindings. It is the reason why I am there. I tried Sublime, Atom and other text editors and VS Code's VIM mode was on par.

I have tried vscode and vim plugin but found it to be noticeably less responsive than vim.

Is it built in, or is it a plugin?

I like it except that it installed it's own apt sources for updates without telling me, and that rubbed me the wrong way.

I believe that would be distro dependent. On my Linux base I just use the RPM until I added a repo.
