Poll: Atom vs Sublime Text

[BlueX]

Which of these 2 text editors do you prefer (and why) ? I personally prefer Atom.

Neither as they are both a pile of shit.

Linux Gedit

out of those 2 it must be Sublime Text. but the new VS Code love it

[burnttoastnice]

For big projects Atom. For small projects Codiad. For fixing minor bigs - any basic text editor installed on the system.

[vorticalbox]

you can run notepad++ in playonlinux but there is a native clone called notepadqq.

Of those two: Sublime Text. Atom runs on a web browser engine, basically blowing up its overall size and implying weird security issues.

 

That said, I switched from Sublime Text to Emacs in 2013 and wouldn't want to go back.

I don't really know. Atom is Open-Source but I feel like Sublime has more features by default. Atom more customizable... I guess I'm going with Atom here. Both have their pros and cons.

[Dat Guy]

As if "open source" would automatically do wonders on the overall quality.

Care to explain?

 

I'm using Atom, since it's free, has prettier themes and Sublime doesn't have any features I desire.

I'm wondering why people still use Notepad++, I've used it for a bit, but generally it's

a pile of shit.

apt-get install nano -y.

Visual Studio Code is in my opinion better than both Atom and Sublime. It's similar to Atom but fast and stable.

[TheGuyNL]

I am used to Sublime, have used it for a very long time but just recently VS code had become really good. It's already much better than Atom!

Not really, I just don't have the energy tonight 

[XenoScript]

I've started with Sublime text and never found any reasons to try anything else to bb honest

[flowalex]

I use a mix between atom and visual studio code, I think that for big projects atom and smaller projects VScode.
