I'm not sure if you're serious or not. If you are serious, I'm sure I'm not the only one interested in why and how it turned out :)
He's serious, it's https://nylas.com/n1 . See https://www.nylas.com/blog/splitting-the-atom (i'm not associated with them)
I love the concept of Atom and have a lot invested in its success. That being said, I switched back to Sublime because of the responsiveness, and here's why: Programming (for me) is a craft. When I'm in the flow of coding, there's a conversation between me and my program, mediated through the editor (and my REPL). Even a subtle typing lag is enough to subtly disrupt that flow state – the speed of thought and text no…
Atom's speed has increased so much that I usually don't notice a lack of performance anymore. Startup time is one second flat and unless I'm opening huge DB dumps or have dozens of selections at the same time, it feels just like Sublime Text.

I just did some benchmarking and discovered switching the Windows theme to Classic reduced the lag with 30-40ms!!!

Visual Studio Code works better for me in terms of lag, yet being extensible and similar in concept as well as price. Not quite as extensible as Atom though, not on the order of being able to rebuild the interface and core features as far as I have seen. But enough to offer pretty good suppport for e.g. Go development including linting and debugging, without actually offering this built-in.

Tested with a real XML file here: # wc -l t.xml 315479 t.xml # wc -c t.xml 10377128 t.xml Unlike Sublime, it doesn't syntax highlight for some reason, but it does open. Opens quite fast, too. Editing, cursor movement, pagination, etc. all super fast. OS X 10.11.3, Atom 1.6.0 on a MacBook Pro (Retina mid-2015, 2.8GHz Core i7, 16GB RAM, AMD Radeon R9 M370X).
Interesting -- disabling the xml plugin significantly improves performance for me (but I lose syntax highlighting).

I've had the same feeling about the startup speed issue, but with javascript / typescript, I've found that Visual Studio Code occupies the middle in startup performance, and I've found the "intellisense" information to take a load off the mental difficulty of work and memory. So now I use Sublime to make quick edits, but for anything longer, I use Visual Studio Code.
Here is a conversation about VSC better performance. It was an interesting read https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/10188
I have tried both and both are slow and sticking with Vim and RStudeo.
I am still using it, but delays really break the flow.

No! You must be lying! I just opened a file and experienced none of that. Therefore it is patently impossible for you to be experiencing what you say you are! /s Didn't we get enough of this BS in the era where people were "victim-blaming" over BSODs in Windows because "I've never had a BSOD and I've been running Windows for years?"
Did you mean to reply to hacker_9 ?

Yes, of course there are several [1] packages, e.g. for Ubuntu [2] - so you do not have to waste your time checking for a new version, downloading it via your browser and installing it manually, like it was done in the last century.
I am not affiliated with geany developers in any way, I am just not a follower of the new-old church of bloatism.
