> Well, Atom is no longer supported, so I'm going to have to switch to something anyway.

Is there an official source or announcement for this? I've noticed that recent release notes and changelogs have become much less substantial, but I've yet to see anything indicating that it's approaching EOL.

There isn't an official announcement but I wouldn't wait for one. The lack of updates coupled with the fact that Microsoft now owns GitHub indicates a very high likelihood that Atom development is practically dead.

Even if Atom itself is not dead the ecosystem is. The kick that finally got me onto VSCode was the stagnant plugin updates for things that were very important to me.

I haven’t really looked back, except that Atom had better git support in its native UI.
