Agree Atom is slow. How would you compare with Sublime?

VSCode is roughly halfway between Atom and Sublime.

It's still Electron based, and there's no way around that.

What does "halfway" even mean in that context???

The way I read it is, if the one takes 10 seconds to start and the other takes 6 seconds to boot, halfway is some 8 seconds. Something like that. :)
