I'm probably late to the game, but this a rather pretty theme for Sublime, it makes the whole UI feel a little more cohesive than some of the others I've tried.

"They did fix those rounded corners on macOS though." – they should have started (and stopped) the keynote with this. It's all that was needed, the entire OS release could have been this.

Not the cheaper the of the scale you might be looking for, but 100% Maslins. 10+ years with them and I honestly couldn’t find a single thing to complain about. They’re brilliant, fee includes FreeAgent. They’re one of the original ”FreeAgent“ friendly accountants, employee owned/etc.
