Sublime Text came pretty close to dying during the Sublime Text 2 years. I recall development slowed down substantially (it was a solo dev, IIRC), and it being pretty surprising when Sublime Text 3 came out.

Sublime Text has never came close to dying.

It was only adderal driven developer crowd making mountain out of a mole because they felt uneasy their frigging text editor hadn't been updated every other week.
