Sorry that happened to you. We've since improved our updater to avoid this happening again, but your loss of trust is understandable. Hopefully downgrading back to ST3 was not too big of a hassle.
ST4 has full backwards compatibility for plugins, keeping the same python 3.3 ST3 shipped with, so I'm surprised your setup broke. ST3 licenses were also fully transitioned to ST4, so any license less than 3 years old covered the initial ST4 release.
Does ST4 require a license? I'm still on 3 and I know it doesn't require one.

Sublime Text has always required a license, but has an unlimited trial period with a nag popup.
That's what I meant, as it effectively doesn't "require" a license :P

Thank you for making such good software and being decent people. Sublime Text is my go-to example of a small team making quality software that puts people first. I'm very grateful.
Destroyed the whole st ide setup (plugins didn't work for st4) And st3 licence can't be used for st4 (you get the st4 licence if you bought st3 some months before)
If I use st for private stuff that would be annoying, but as I use it for my work that was money.
