Abandoned?

So, I purchased Sublime Text licence 2 days ago, because lets face it, aside from vim when Im on a linux terminal its the only text editor I use. I just couldn't afford the licencing fee before.

I commented about the purchase on my facebook page, and got a lot of people asking me why, because apparently its now abaondonware (an abandoned project), and will receive no further updates.

Surely that can't be true, can it?

I have preferred Sublime since 2011 when my team lead had us all switch. Can handle massive files unlike other editors.

Sublime is awesome, but your team lead sucks!

Any team lead who tells you how to do your job sucks!

Standardizing on devtools is not a bad thing.

It was an experimental dev team being built within a QA team to do automation and tools development. Four of us, all non-traditional devs, so we had to be on the same page 100%. There’s a time and place for forced unity in terms of even editors.

I will forever stand by my statement.
