The difference in "snappiness" between Sublime Text and VS Code is extremely noticeable. The startup time in particular is substantially slower on VS Code (not just on the initial startup but also upon loading new windows)

The reason I still use VS Code is because the additional features for coding make it worth the unfortunate performance cost, but whenever I'm just working with basic markdown files I always go to something like Sublime.
