Sublime Text has the strangest development cycle I can think of.
It does big-bang releases with lots of features, followed by frequent bug fix releases that quickly resolve issues, followed then by years of silence even though there are still issues... until there's a major version bump and the cycle starts again.
This then means that the plugin ecosystem is fairly under developed and inactive because there's little incentive to actively develop plugins for software that appears to be dead.
I used Sublime for many years and it was hard to let it go, the speed was great and the SublimeGit plugin was the best Git client I've used, but multi-project development was a pain because the Python/JS/etc plugins didn't have good support for virtualenvs/per-project config/etc, and it was clear that they were out of active development.
I switched to another editor and it's slower, but fast enough. It's not quite as nice in many ways but it's nice enough. Critically though it's got a great plugin for most things.
