Panic’s Next Editor

What an incredibly narrow viewpoint. It is true that for certain creative industries there are better tools available for OSX. But Windows has a leg up on OSX for many industry specific tasks as well, like intense realtime video graphics processing amongst many other tasks.

More to the point, Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, Atom and other competitors for panic's editors are fine apps themselves. Visual Studio Code is free and open and it is as good as any editor that Panic can create or has created in the past. There is a ton of free and open and good software out there. Like Linux, Kubernetes, or dotnet, or golang to name a few.

Maybe if you qualified your statement to consumer apps, you may have more of a point.

You didn't contradict their viewpoint and I think your response is symbolic of what they're talking about when it comes to windows and linux. The apps are technically capable but mediocre at best in design and polish. Panic's software blows all software on these platforms away.

You'll find that literally impossible to prove.
