Thanks for the laugh, mate. Exchange is a fucking pile of shit and pretty much anyone that has to manage it universally hates it.

Postfix is a million times more stable and uses a tenth of the resources as Exchange while being even more performant.

not really
e.g. to compile and run a .c file by pressing ctrl+b you just need to make a standard .sublime-build file with

Same applies to other languages whose .sublime-build files you can edit with PackageResourceViewer

The GPLs demands are stupid

If we didn't have the BSD licence, we wouldn't have the PS4 as we know it.

The GPL says "here's my code, you must never keep it private, you must always give back to me"

that's fucking commie shit lad

This is incorrect, you're not obliged to make all GPL code publicly available, the only requirement is that those to whom it's distributed are to have access to the source code.

If the PS4 had never been released, every bit of its OS could be under the GPL and Sony would be under no obligation to tell anyone about it.

You can do literally anything with Posftix if you know how to script properly. For example, you can configure it to store mail in a SQL database, at which point it's trivial to set policies base on AD security groups with a cronjob. Same with filtering incoming and outgoing mail.

The whole point is "free as in freedom". You can sell your modified and improved variant. That is your freedom to do so. You just have to also provide the source code and the attribution. But this promotes a free market. Those who are better will be able to modify a product they own, and if they can, improve upon it and compete. It's about as far from Communism as you can get.

How is that commie shit? Commie shit is hiding the source and not letting others compete or improve/modify shit they own and purchased because it's copyrighted and we can't have feelings hurt if someone does it better than they could.

Maybe because it's better and piracy is a dead simple zero effort endeavor.

Because things you can do in both PS and GIMP are easier/faster to do in PS

Photoshop has waaaay better RAW image support. So if by hobbyist photographer you don't mean "Someone who takes selfies with their phone" then Photoshop is a lot easier to use.

Except nothing is compatible with it because everything was written with ASP.NET in mind and not .NET Core.

Atom blows dong.

Surprisingly VSCode is very good. I'd say it's better than Sublime at this point. It's basically Atom if Atom wasn't a bloated, slow, crash-prone piece of crapware.

There was a bug in a TV I bought where image pre-processing was enabled even after disabling causing input lag when using the TV as a screen for console gaming, making it painful to use.

Since the TV was 6 months old, the manufacture no longer released updates for it, even when there are serious bugs.
I asked the company for source code so I could fix it myself but they didn't give it to me, meaning I wasted money on a TV with the reason being closed source software.
The manufacture wants you to buy new hardware to fix issues instead.

I just want to be able to fix stuff I own since the manufacture refused to fix it.

Why do people participate in these threads? You all have horrible taste in software.

Why you even care about how developers do their work when you're all clearly dumb end users is beyond me.

What is a good reason to hate on Sublime Text aside from pointless elitism?
>>
>>61628104

I don't hate it personally but I stopped using because of this >>61627963
>>
>>61628141
What do you use now then?
I thought Sublime was pretty fast compared to the competition, especially shit like Atom.
I used to work with Vim but I honestly don't like the interface and don't want to spend time tweaking it to my liking.
>>
>>61628104
>good reason to hate
No reason.
>good reason to prefer other options
Plenty. Depending on options.
I'm surprised people bother with software that can't run well on the supercomputers we have today. Even emacs is fucking slow.
>>
>>61628194
>Plenty. Depending on options.
Elaborate. I haven't had problems with Sublime (yet) but I want something that'll stay fast even when I load larger projects.
>>
>>61628169
oh yeah atom is just unbearable.. i've seen some coworkers using vscode which seems good but i think it's in electron as well?

i'm using vim since a few months ago - i installed it for fun to see what the fuss was about, but after playing a little bit it won me over. and it doesn't seem to care about large files, and it's really good at moving around lots of different files from different places.
>>
>>61628305
Maybe I'll try VSCode if things become difficult with Sublime. I don't like Vim that much, what plugins do you use with it?
>>
>>61622370
Never used sublime but atom is shit.
Spacemac is perfect for me
>>
>>61628104
- proprietary
- dev just disappeared for a year and everyone thought the project was dead
>>
>>61628350
just CtrlP(fuzzy file name search) and ack.vim(search in files, using ag which is crazy fast)

I generally try to add plugins or remap stuff after I learn the vanilla way and see if i like it or not, I don't want to overload it with a million plugins just so it feels like sublime - no point in changing in this case.

btw random tip: if you're on linux you can make sublime use ag for searching in files - your searches will be so much faster.
