I feel that the comments here are too negative, which ST2/3 does not deserve. ST is still a supreme editor and using/paying for ST is not a bad thing. Wasn't it ST which introduced the cool look&feel and features which Atom and VSCode now adopted? I love the ST ctrl+d select (even if it existed before).

PLUS: ST still has a super quick loading time which makes it a great addition to emacs/vi in some use cases.

> cool look&feel and features

Which ones?

And yes, cmd+d is the best thing since sliced bread.

As a quibble, I would say that Visual Studio Code is unique in its own right, and not for any of its code editing features (which is comparatively lacking). It's a simple editor with a killer code insight feature. I have a feeling other editors will have difficulty replicating this feature.

What is the "code insight" feature? Is it an intellisense feature of VSCode?
