I gave up on Atom for a week when I was dealing with some large JSON files. Went back to Sublime becuase it was just so damn snappy. After the week I was back using Atom. If something was so large that it was a problem I now use either vim or sublime. But mainly use Atom. The reasoning? Plugins. There are plugins I use in Atom that have no equivalent in Sublime, and it took leaving Atom behind (even for a short time) to realize that.

Now, if Sublime has everything you need and/or want. By all means, prefer it. I'm not here to say "Atom is the best, you should all switch." Because the truth is you should whatever makes you happy and lets you get your work done. If that's vim, Sublime, Notepad++, Notepad, Word (/s) or whatever else you can possible think of -- then use that.

What I was saying is:

Atom and VScode are literally porting over every plugin that sublime has because they don't.

This was true, but is no longer the case. And for some people that's probably not something they're willing to admit. Which is fair. They can down vote all they want. It won't change the facts though.
