Tangential, but is everyone using Sublime comfortable with the sidebar on the left? Moving the sidebar to the right is the first thing I do in every editor, and the few times I tried Sublime I was surprised that for all its customizability that option doesn't exist. I was skimming through the changelog now and it seems like this is still true today.

#42As someone who greatly under-utilizes Sublime, I'm still amazed at the ease with which it handles crazy, large files. I never even notice it until someone remarks on how I'm able to open a ~20 Mb file without hassle.
This might be more of a function of some of the more broken Electron editors. Any sane editor can open a 20 Mb file without hassle. Notepad and TextEdit can.

Isn't this exactly what JetBrains does with IntelliJ? The core is open source and more than enough for most users. I loved the tool so much, don't touch 90% of the features, but shell out money every month for the Ultimate license because great software is expensive to develop.

#46Amazing, I don't think i've ever used "beta" products for so long. Glad it's finally official!

But it's not that great at several GB :(
I'd guess most editors do. Have you found an editor that doesn't?

Depends on which monitor I have my editor in. I try to have the primary text for the editor in the middle so the nav switches left / right depending on the window location.

There is no need to imagine. Emacs, Vim, Atom, Notepad++, etc. are all free software.
I think we are supposing that electron apps aren't good software. But yes, emacs and vim still exist.
Re: Sublime Text 3.0
#50$80 for something we make a living on is very reasonable.
Not when Atom is pretty much the exact same thing but open-source and free.
Then use Atom and don't comment
The parent comment is valid for every software in the world, if you make your living with a 80$ software and you don't want to pay for it, you have big issues
