I still use Atom mostly because of the default interface. Care to list the plugins that you used?
Of course. The most useful ones are the following:
- Bracket Pair Colorizer
- EditorConfig for VS Code
- ESLint
- Git Blame
- Material Icon Theme
- Path Intellisense
- Prettier - Code Formatter
- SCSS IntelliSense
- TSLInt
- Winter is Coming Theme by John Papa

Emmet.
I get why people use it, I just don't have any use case for it. I'd rather write my code myself instead. Just a personal preference though.

I don't find the code generation stuff that useful but I found it useful for its text manipulation features - like selecting all text within 2 nodes, editing a start and end tag at once.

To each his preference, I suppose. But I definitely could imagine a far more difficult life without Emmet.
Since Atom doesn't provide anything that we can't install in VSCode as a plugin, there really is no reason to use Atom right now. The only problem I had with VSCode was the default interface, that I modified with plugins until it pretty much looks like Atom, but runs way faster.
