This article is exhausting: it is hard to tell if it was written by AI, or if the author just likes one the 'one sentence per paragraph' writing style.

Personally, from some of the style, I'm coming down on the 'written by AI' side.

Now reading HN articles has basically turned into a witch hunt (strikethrough) an AI hunt )) Anyway, as for the point of the article, I totally get why the author moved on. Sublime will always have a special place in my toolkit, but for serious, modern dev work (especially on big projects) there are better all-rounders now.

Moved away from ST to VSCode a couple of years ago for similar reasons too.

Sublime Merge, though - I tried a couple of alternative solutions, but none of those felt like an improvement, so I still rely on it, but it has all the same drawbacks as ST, the most severe being glacial pace of changes (or total lack thereof). It's as if the dev team lacks capacity to deal with basic UX issues, year over year.
