Most importantly I miss SFTP. There's already a github project for sftp, but at the moment it's almost unusable. https://github.com/jules-r/atom-sftp
I also really miss bracket highlighter, it's a super small tool, but very useful. You could tackle the bracket highlighter plugin, it might even be possible with pure less/css depending on if Atom already has this built-in.
And I miss being able to run a Python REPL in Atom. Python and JS are my main programming languages.
I will switch when Atom gets more stable (I still encounter bugs everywhere), and more performant.
I have already developed a plugin for Atom, I hate the living shit out of Coffeescript, but I like Atom's API. It's a shame that the spacepen API was built in such a way that it's unbearable to write plugins with it in pure js.

Jesus, I've never realized how similar it was to Sublime Text.
In use, it is very different from Sublime Text. Especially the plugin system is far more powerful.
I still prefer Sublime though, Atom is still too immature, and some packages I need don't exist yet or are far too unstable.
That, and Atom is just far, faaaar too slow at the moment.
care to list a package that you need to that isnt in atom yet? (i would love to take a crack at building it)

I said something similar on seeing Sublime after using TextMate for 5 years.
