Title: When Microsoft acquired GitHub, there was speculation (and fear on my behalf) that GitHub would end up axing Atom in favor of Visual Studio Code.<p>Taking a look at the commit activity for Atom on github.com [1] shows that since the end of June 2019, development has basically stopped completely.  Does anyone have any insight as to what is happening here? Has GitHub abandoned Atom development?<p>Before you angrily shout that &quot;Visual Studio Code&quot; is better, or &quot;just use VS code&quot;, please recall the current situation with Google Chrome mono-culture. Say what you will about Atom, but (especially in the last twelve months) the product had become very fast and in my opinion, provided a much better user experience that VS code.<p>[1] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;atom&#x2F;atom&#x2F;graphs&#x2F;commit-activity
