I don't really understand why these new releases are called 'dev' builds, and there isn't an official non-dev ST3 build yet.
Are most people using ST3 anyway, despite the releases being labelled dev builds? Are they in fact pretty stable? Are most widely used plugins updated for ST3 (and maybe no longer supported for ST2?)
Should I just go ahead and switch ST3 "dev"?
All multiple years of 'dev' releases gets you is confusion, if this is what most people are using and most plugin developers are targetting, i wish the developer would just call it a release.

There are actually non-dev builds of ST3, and those are somewhat stable and what most people use.

I've been using ST3 for some time off and on, and never had any issue. I just download it from http://www.sublimetext.com/3
