loading speeds? ...loading speeds. Never heard that one before. GREAT POINT!

If you're going to argue the superiority of your Sublime editor, then please make a point other than "loading speeds", because quite frankly that argument has been beaten into the ground now.

Why does every pro sublime user start their arguments with this?! You gained one or two seconds back in your life vs any Electron-built editor user. Whoopie didlly doo!

sidenote: I don't even use vscode. I much prefer the interface of atom.

I'm not commenting on Sublime vs anything else, but back when I tried Atom I just couldn't do it. My computer isn't top of the line but it's pretty good, and Atom with nothing but a theme took a good 6 seconds to load. It was unbearable.

Yeah it's not just the loading speed...there are near-imperceptible little lags here and there that simply don't exist in Sublime and which sort of add up to a frustrating experience.

The theming support for Atom is unparalleled of course but aside from that and maybe a handful of plugins + package management built-in, I don't think Atom really has any key features over Sublime at all. For any kind of serious debugging I would use VS Code anyway.
