NotepadNext: A cross-platform reimplementation of Notepad++

I thought Sublime's popularity has grown in recent years? Was it even more popular in the past or am I mistaken? It's just that compared to the standard vim vs emacs debate, I now always hear sublime thrown in for good measure when discussing pure text editors.

I last used Sublime Text in early 2014 and the same is true for most of my friends.

It is a lot more performant than VS Code, but VS Code seems to have won on the sheer quantity of “good enough” plugins. Its pair programming features are a big deal as well.

For the most part I use VIM for quick things and VS Code when I need a plugin or to work with others. SBT kinda sits between those two extremes.

The pair programming feature from VSC is the only one I’d really miss from that side if I were to go back to SBT. Not sure about from the VIM side because I’m sure the SBT VIM plugins have improved over the past 8 years.

Everyone I worked with in about 2014 swore by sublime text. A few years later it lost a ton of ground when Atom was released (and then forked to make VSCode).

I think it was a joke about the band.

I used it in 2010 for PHP and python related projects, It worked like charm.
