Ask HN: Is Sublime Text abandonware?

9 points

12 years ago

The developer, Jon Skinner, has not tweeted since Dec. 17 [1], has not posted to the blog since Dec. 18 [2], and the latest dev build was released on Dec. 21 [3]. He signed into the forums today [4], but has not replied to any posts (including those asking about the status of Sublime Text) since Dec. 21 [5].

I was thinking about buying Sublime Text, but if it's dead on arrival, then I'd rather save the money. Does anyone have an idea of what's going on?
