I'm curious how this works at the technical level. The license key presumable encodes both an expiry date and what version numbers it is valid for when it was issued (and therefore will continue to work for even after expiry)?
Licenses encode an issue date and builds have a build date.

I tried Sublime text and I really like it. But I have been a user of UltraEdit for many many years (maybe 20?) and I still find it much more natural to use. I found it while looking for an editor to replace Semware's Qedit (DOS). I wonder why UltraEdit has not much love here. I do find Sublime's price much better than UltraEdit.
Never heard of UltraEdit in 10yrs of my career, or came across it when searching for editors and IDEs.
Hello HN, I'm one of the developers at Sublime HQ. We're all very excited about this release. If you have any questions you'd like to ask I'll do my best to answer them.
Regarding the licence upgrade options: Are there any solutions for users owning a single licence for both Sublime Text 3 and Sublime Merge? My Sublime Merge licence for example is still valid for 2 years from now. If I try to upgrade my current licence and want to bundle them together it says the price is 152 USD. Any options for users like me to not make them pay twice when choosing the bundle licence?

Do you expect that working with Python codebases will get better with this release? I mean it in the context of code completion and other "intelligence" features.

M1 macs are the first Apple devices where I feel you're getting excellent value for money and they are super affordable for what they are. These are professional tools, you're going to need to invest into hardware to get a good experience - if you value your time at all you'll be spending a good ammount of money on a laptop, high quality chair, good desk, monitor and peripheral. If you're an amateur or a student then…
You sound like a really amateurish marketing firm.
I used to be fully on the native editor train, but I love VSCode so much, it's difficult to justify switching back.

I have no relation to them by the way, latest version that I own is 26 something. While the latest release is 28 something.
Maybe it is because 28 years ago, when it first released, internet was just starting.
Sublime is "only" 13 years old, so internet was already very much mainstream.
But it is really good. Very fast. I love the column mode.
If I search for UltraEdit in HN, the latest post if from 10 years ago, when they announced the Mac version:

Crazy.

Do you have any plans to add first class support for SSH based or docker based remote development workflows? The current Rsubl implementation kinda works. But is a bit hacky for reliable everyday work.
We've certainly talked about it, but there aren't any concrete plans yet.
Once again, love sublime, just a suggestion :)

How difficult would it be to make a Sublime-Text-for-terminals?
Practically impossible. It's like trying to play a video on a terminal.
