Around the 1990s the winner was vim.
Around the 2000s the winner was Eclipse.
Around the 2010s the winner was Sublime Text.
Around the 2015s the winner was Atom.
Now the winner is VS Code.
Who cares which editor will be the next winner? I just keep using #Emacs, esp. as none of all the winners can read my email (#mu4e) or be my window manager (#exwm) 🙂
