I'm in the same boat, though I find it unlikely that I would go back to Sublime at this point.

VSCode is free, (mostly) MIT, has a unified debugger, great git support, integrated terminal emulator, and a nice healthy extension community.

Sublime is cheap for how often you'll use it, but not free. It's proprietary. Git support even with paid plugins is lacking, especially compared to VS Code.

I'm glad I bought Sublime when I did, but I'm also glad I found VSCode when I did. If there's a choice between FOSS and proprietary, and the FOSS project already works better, the proprietary option is unlikely to make a comeback for me.

Same here. I switched from Sublime to VSCode a few weeks ago after reading some comments here on HN. I don't think I will go back to Sublime for the reasons you mentioned. I also have the feeling that thanks to a fast increasing community the extensions are more polished (in particular, I like the vim mode better).

Sublime is indeed faster and more lightweight but that's not enough for me to keep using it.

Really? One of the things that has kept me on Sublime is SublimeGit. It's fantastic.
