Sublime may lack the feature richness of VSC and while I switched to the second a while ago for my day to day coding needs, it's still my editor of choice when I need to edit huge files or paste content coming from a website and I always have a sublime window open just in case I need to quickly type something.

I only use sublime for sudo editing, cause it's easier to just install some nginx syntax highlighter, and ini/config into the sudo profile, and run sudo subl /etc than it is to use vscode, I mean vscode does ask "would you like to use sudo" but I'm not sure how good it is to use vscode for sudo editing or viewing of files... and I don't want to have to okay it on EVER file when I'm doing a lot of system edits for a new linux package I'm trying out and testing - like when I tried to get a system-wide proxy tool installed.
