Once upon a time, I used Sublime Text, Sublime Merge, and paid for them.
But one day, I realized enough was enough. Sublime Text 2 was worth its cost, and so was Sublime Text 3. But when we were introduced to Sublime Text 4 and its license with an annual fee, we were told that it was to avoid holding back significant features for the next major release to boost its sales. The annual fee would allow them to release new features just after done - that's what they said. But where is it? Sublime Text, previously stagnant, continued to stagnate in its fourth version.
