Anyone have a rational to use Sublime 3 over Sublime 2?

For me, vim mode has been less buggy.

Goto Definition and the improved syntax definitions (speed and accuracy) are some of the most visible.

There are some 'sidebar operations' that I can do in 3 with the command palette but not in 2. One that I use a lot is 'new file relative to current file', and I think 'rename' also doesn't work in 2.

I was really surprised to discover ayu

As someone who greatly prefers light themes over dark, ayu seems to be the light theme I've been searching for.

I really enjoyed the Mirage theme. Reminded me of Cerberus from Mass Effect 2 or the OS in Tron Legacy.

Is the file association icon for .js in the screenshots the atom one? Kind of amusing.

I've been using:

    "theme": "Soda Dark 3.sublime-theme",
    "color_scheme": "Packages/User/Monokai (SL).tmTheme"
and generally happy. Not sure it is "modern" with the bells and whistles of the themes the post suggests though.

I'm quite happy with:

    "color_scheme": "Packages/Theme - Afterglow/Afterglow.tmTheme",
    "theme": "Afterglow.sublime-theme"
The fact that I can configure the tab's padding saves me a couple of pixels, which I really appreciate.

Ah, good times when I adapted my own color scheme[1] for ST2 in 2013. Funny thing is, it's a Textmate theme (`tmTheme`) file and will work in a lot of other editors as well. E.g., it's trivial to use/convert it to Atom or VSCode.
