Dead editor, thanks CIA. Should I submit to the botnet of the superior Visual Studio Code or use this vastly shittier Atom that everyone else is using?
>inb4 Vim or Emacs I'm already using Vim for quick editing and small stuff but if I'm programming for hours, I'd rather use a modern editor.
>Visual Studio Code >Atom Oh well, if you don't mind waiting two hours for the JS to settle on startup, go for it

I mostly use Vim. If I know I'm going to be programming for 2+ hours anyways, I'll use a heavier editor. That being said, I absolutely fucking hate both of them, VS Code a tiny bit less but fuck Microsoft. Feel free to suggest any alternatives that are not using this JS Electron Chrome whatthefuckever bullshit.
For the past month, I've just used Geany. Might stick with that. It's fast, it's simple, it has features.

what's going on with CIA??

Just continue to fucking use Sublime. What's the problem with it being dead? The only thing it doesn't have is support to font ligatures

>botnet of the superior Visual Studio Code Isn't VS code open source?
Leo Russell
what the hell are you talking about
Jaxson Baker
You can get Sublime Text 3 for free thanks to the CIA leaks.
Last update almost a year ago and every workplace is suggesting the use of Atom. Is there a serious IDE on the works comparable to Sublime/VSCode/Atom?

>I'd rather use a modern editor what does atom have that vim doesn't?

Believe me when I say I'm not a fanboy of Jetbrains. WebStorm and PHPStorm both feel janky. That said, IntelliJ with all the plugins installed from the other two works way better.
Also, when writing Go applications, Gogland (presently in early access) is fantastic.
So, if you're looking for a true IDE, those work. Otherwise, I'm keen on Atom (to an extent), am exploring VSCode, still use Sublime3, and VIM+Tmux is always a reliable pro-tool.
not really. The source is public but it is bound to some gay ass shit microsoft patents and licenses.
Atom is shittier and ran by nu-males but at least it's MIT licensed.
William Campbell
Sublime is dead? Why?
Justin Carter
jetbrains ide for bigger projects that require fancy features like easy refactoring and advanced debugging vscode for any other programming vim/emacs for editing text files
this will work great for a lot of people, but there are exceptions (C/C++ for example)
Hunter Cox
is there an CLI editor that isn't nano, vim, or emacs
Michael Reyes
It's not.
Michael Miller
ed?
Grayson Carter
neovim

only if you download the binaries, they are not opensource, or use the Microsoft store, if you compile from Arch just use visual-studio-code-oss and download the packages manually and install them
Brandon Murphy
Thanks. I switched to Kate.
John Sanchez
fuck you User #524297
Dominic Harris
Nigger VS Code is MIT licensed too.
Charles Gutierrez
kate is actually quite good the split screens of it works better than any other text editor
Adrian Kelly
Why not np++?
Ian Gonzalez
Loonix.
Landon Hill
VSCode with VsVim plugin
Luis Murphy
Convenient time to switch too! I'm a long time Geany user and I just switched to KDE earlier today. Kate supports the global menu and theming better than Geany and it's quite similiar in many ways.
Luis King
I used kate 2 years ago or so anyone know how to get the identical theme of sublime text default on it? only reason I used sublime was the snytax highlighting

Just looking for a new text editor. I've learned to provoke others in order to get answers. Threads just die otherwise.
