I tried Atom for a month or so, but I ended up switching back to Sublime Text.

I tried Atom for a month or so, but I ended up switching back to Sublime Text. Atom is slow to the point that it crashes hard on difficult files (minified JS files are the big pain point for me). It also never seemed to respect my preferences for using spaces instead of tabs and two spaces instead of 4 for indentation. Changing configuration was also excrutiatingly slow. While not perfect, Sublime Text has none of these huge warts.
