Asking genuinely, why not Sublime Text? (I haven't tried it or Atom in several years, but used both back in the day).

I'm probably going to give Sublime another try.

For one, I'm finicky about colors and VS code makes it easy to tweak one or two colors of a theme without getting involved in forking and creating a whole new theme. I may just do it, though.

Also, I recall having some issues getting linting to work and the editor highlighting lint errors in not-very-visible ways (like the first character of the line had a red underline).

Again, it's been a while and these could be issues I had with ST3 and/or I missed the way to fix it.
