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.
Is there any chance you'll be adding support for moving the sidebar to the right? This is the one stopping me from moving back to sublime.

As always it depends on the hardware. I've personally found that things start to get slow at >1440p.
Is there a typing latency penalty to GPU rendering?

Re: Sublime Text 4
#604Awesome. Sublime is my favorite editor by far. Performance, multiple cursors, and syntax highlighting is all I need Couple questions: 1. I already have JSX and TypeScript plugins installed. Should I remove those? 2. When will there be a `~/Library/Sublime Text 4/` directory now?
Yes, you're likely best off uninstalling third party syntaxes for those languages.

Re: Sublime Text 4
#605Does it integrate with the OS text input facilities already? The last time I checked Sublime didn't support Windows 10 native word hints, MacOS long-press accented letter input and didn't accept keyboard shortcuts during using non-latin keyboard layout on Linux. Great job anyway, Sublime is really cool.

#606Is there any way to get it to render at over 60Hz? I've got a high refresh rate monitor but Sublime still renders in 60Hz. I've enabled the hardware_acceleration and it shows up in the console but still no dice.
Oh, I was wrong, sorry. It turns out that it does render in 120Hz but the smooth scrolling is somehow still capped at 60Hz. Is there a way to fix that ?

Notepad is on every system
I can’t seem to find it on my Mac :) Joking aside, even if it were on every system, I don’t see it having much use outside of the very, very rare edit in a system that isn’t my own.
Textedit would be the Mac version.

I love Sublime, I've paid for every version and I did the same for my devs for many years (when I had a company cc!). I would just like to say remote editing is the only thing I use vscode for. If ST had remote editing I and probably a lot of other people would use it more. Once again, love sublime, just a suggestion :)
Install xserver (also works on Mac and Windows) then ssh -X to the container. Start sublime on the container, and the gui will show up locally.

We've certainly talked about it, but there aren't any concrete plans yet.

I don't use VS Code. How do you do it there that is so much better?

That’s pretty cool. I use vim for this particular need and it’s quick to search through big files too
Really? I've found Vim slows to a crawl on multi-GB files. Maybe that's changed recently or it was down to the plug-ins I was using?
