What Hacker News says

I stopped using Atom after I ran into this issue:[0] Basically it's possible to accidentally do a mass replace of a word you did not intend to. In sublime, if you do a mass find/replace, it doesn't save the file. However by default atom saves all the files you make a find/replace in. So you could lose a lot of time undoing an accidental replace. Given my habits (listed in the issue) while in a text editor, this was unacceptable risk for using atom, so of course I filed a ticket which promptly died out. I would like to continue using atom, even with the latency startup issue, but there's too much risk for me in accidentally wasting a lot of time getting bit by this issue.
