Grieving | 4 years ago

I don't use Sublime often anymore, but it's the only graphical editor I can work with. I can't help but get exasperated at the constant, admittedly small, delays with VS Code. I'm talking about small things like the delays when popping open and using the fuzzy finder, the time it takes for a project-wide file search to complete, typed characters showing up just a tiny bit later. Whereas Sublime, for its faults, feels well-oiled, VS Code feels gummy and unable to keep up with me. I know I'm being picky, but it's hard to turn off once you're aware of it, like recognizing bad kerning.

>Maybe it's changed since the sublime 2/3 days, but the packages ecosystem always felt a bit unpolished and anemic.

As far as I can tell it's only gotten worse. The rise of Atom and then VS Code sapped a lot of the energy that went into creating plugins.
