Please, don't consider this a troll question (I personally am a vim kind of guy), but is there any reason to use Atom over VSCode these days? The sole reason to me seems that VSCode is developed by the "evil" Microsoft. Other than that, most people I know who tried Atom switched to VSCode or (back to) Sublime in the end.
I've switched over to something more lightweight - XCode.

What's the actual difference? As far as I can see, they're both poor text editors with bad interfaces, built on top of the horrible mess that is Electron. They're also both massive. VS Code takes up 235 MB and Atom takes a whopping 530 MB. Sublime Text is like 30 MB.
I believe Intellisense is VScode's best differentiator. It provides very good autocomplete.
I prefer Notepad++. On Linux, Geany is a viable alternative.... If I need an IDE, I will get an IDE. I want my text editor to be as lightweight as possible. This was not the case with Atom.

What prevent me of using atom is this issue: https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/2456
I don't know. Since it's basically build upon ECMAScript, HTML and Webkit already, why not also wasm?
