Does Sublime Text run on Linux?
Verdict: Yes
Yes. Sublime HQ publish Linux installer files on the same download page as the Windows ones, and run a repository so updates arrive with your normal system updates.
The download page offers Linux packages in both common installer formats, plus versions for Arch and for ARM machines, all signed. Setting up their repository means the editor updates alongside everything else on your system.
Your setup carries over. Copy your settings and key bindings across, install the same packages through Package Control, and the editor looks and behaves as it did on Windows. It opens large files just as quickly.
Sublime Text used to be in the Linux app store through Flathub, but that listing is no longer available and is not maintained, so take the download from sublimetext.com.
The licence works the same on Linux. You can evaluate it for as long as you like, but continued use is meant to be paid for, and a personal licence covers three years of updates rather than every future version.
