Sublime Text

Pros: The application is extremely fast compared to VS code. It is extremely user friendly and does not lag when you open large files. It has good programming language support and extension support

Cons: Since sublime text is not open source, it cost money for a license and there are bugs occasionally that wasn't addressed immediately.

Pros: The performance is second to none. It opens immediately and works with huge log files (size in GBs) without crashing, a problem other IDEs have. The Multi-Edit / Multi-Cursor tool is a Godsend for immediate refactoring or working with data lists.

Cons: Unless you have bought a license, the 'Unregistered' alert that pops up every so often can be irritating. Furthermore, compared to the current extension market places available with VSCode, using Package Control to manage plugins seems dated and less user-friendly than current systems.

Pros: I like the simplicity and straightforwardness of the Sublime Text editor paired with the flexibility of being able to install the packages I care about.

Cons: Unfortunately, the app is behind the curve in terms of integrating AI with the IDE. I ended up switching to a competitor because of this.

Pros: Sublime Text was my code editor of choice for many years, I still haven't found anything that opens as fast this does!

Cons: The only reasons I switched away was for more detailed debugging that an IDE gives you, especially for C#.

Pros: It's free, it's Mac friendly and it does exactly what you need it to. Very customisable but I often don't need to.

Cons: Could have some AI features baked in nowadays. Cursor and windsurf have them baked in but the UI isn't as good.

Pros: The free version was enough to help me in a project, thanks to its specific and extended flavour of Regex: i managed to edit a large file where I needed a very precise way to identify a difficult part for "bulk" editing! Also, it's fast!

Cons: Maybe the price is not so affordable, if compared to other valid free alternatives, like Visual Studio Code!

Pros: Blazing fast performance, excellent multiple cursors, and seamless AI plugin integration. Tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT plugins work flawlessly without slowing down the editor. The lightweight design means AI assistance feels instant and responsive. Good community support.

Cons: Requires manual plugin setup for modern features. While AI plugins work well, they need separate installation and configuration compared to built-in solutions.

Pros: It is a very lightweight tool that has a variety of uses, such as a note-taking application or a mostly complete IDE with code highlighting and formatting.

Cons: Managing packages is somewhat complex, as it requires navigating to the file explorer to manage all the packages.

Pros: I like the ability to split the pane and compare two pieces of software code side by side. I can use that to compare my version to the master version and verify that I only changed what was intended to be changed. I also like the color coding of certain key words which helps me prevent typos in my code.

Cons: I don't always like the auto-complete. It gets it right 95% of the time but sometimes it gets it wrong.

Pros: Sublimt text is my goto text editor for basic programming, while it does not have the frills of VS Code and the Storm IDEs it is light weight and super fast, works the same on any platform and is great for web.

Cons: Plugin directory at times is lacking, but this is less of a complaint about the product and just the community as a whole being smaller

Pros: I started my coding journey with Sublime Text, and honestly, it was perfect for a beginner like me. I loved the colour combo and clean interface — very smooth and easy to use. It never lagged, even on my older laptop, and opening big files was super fast. It gave me a nice push in the beginning.

Cons: One issue I faced was that some advanced features are locked behind the paid version, so for full functionality you have to purchase it. Also, when I moved to VS Code, I realised Sublime is a bit limited — especially in terms of extensions and integrations. The biggest drawback for me was the lack of AI support. It doesn’t have built-in tools like Copilot or Blackbox, which are now very useful in modern coding.

Pros: Simple to use and does not need any fancy bells and whistles. Pretty lightweight and has great community support

Cons: A lot of the good features are paid. Not as feature rich as vs code. Requires plugins for a lot of tasks and also has a high learning curve

Pros: Great lightweight tool with a nice ui and can be used for personal and professional environments

Cons: In order to use its full features. A license is required which can be expensive depending on the use case

Pros: User friendly UI, made the process of coding for a variety of languages easier

Cons: Subscription based payments or a full version that needs payment

Pros: Sublime is so straight forward and easy to use that you can become an expert after your first use. Since it is so easy to use, you will end up using it for a variety of purposes throughout your day. Additionally, it has a wide variety of features that you have become acustomed to using, giving you a one stop show for a text program.

Cons: The tabbing for multiple open documents can become painful to navigate through when you have a large amount of files opened at once.

Pros: I have been using sublime text for editing and writing code for emails. it does everything it needs and has a simpe UI which makes it comfortable to use.

Cons: I had been using dreamweaver for editing and designing emails, which has a split screen view and live preview option which would be useful in Sublime text.

Pros: The software has coding elements that support the work done faster

Cons: Even the interface needs an update, it's still speed and performance

Pros: It's ability to process large documents, syntax highlighting and packages for most use cases.

Cons: The packages for CSV editing aren't top notch! If I need some advanced features, they are not available for CSV but it is an amazing piece of software.

Pros: Cet éditeur de code à une interface fluide, facile à utilisation et compatible à presque tout les langues de programmation reconnus. Ce que m'arrange le plus avec Sublime Text, est qu'il a un système qui permet de te suggérer la structure des algorithmes et balises en fonction de ton quand tu commences par taper les mots du début, ce qui rend la programmation plus rapide.

Cons: Bref, depuis de temps que j'utilise Sublime Text, je n'ai pas encore rencontré un souci particulier, tout fonctionne correctement à mon niveau

Pros: Sublime Text has a clean interface that can quickly be used to jump in to code.

Cons: This product is nowhere near as good as VS Code.

Pros: It’s super fast, reliable, free to use, and computer resource usage is very low. Also: Even if it crashes or I close it, it retains unsaved changes. It’s language-agnostic. I am able to identify special characters that look like that they "don’t exist" in regular WYSIWYG editors but they do, something like: ‌<0x200c>

Cons: For my purpose (occasional simple HTML, CSS, JS editing) it works perfectly fine and smooth. There’s nothing that stood in my way.

Pros: The speed of the software even on slow computers. Everything feels snappy in sublime

Cons: Can’t really think of anything specific.

Pros: I am so friendly with this editor when I was starting my career in coding first of all I started with Sublime Text .

Cons: Nothing to like this I love with sublime text and everything is so smooth.
