Well, it's not hugely popular nor does it have tons of money behind it, so if you're looking for an editor with hundreds of plugins, you'll be disappointed here.

But if you're looking for a text editor that's open-source, not heavy on resources and not arcane (a.k.a. Vim or Emacs), then it's among the most powerful you can find.

And like, that's one of my favorite aspects of it. There isn't much of a "switch" necessary. It largely behaves in obvious ways. It's a utility, not a life investment.
