Textmate 2 did exactly what Blender did. Went open source, has a healthy developer community, and has had steady updates for a couple of years. They still call it "Alpha" but it is very stable and I use it every day.

Wow, I somehow missed (or forgot?) that TextMate 2 got open sourced. Here is the Github repo: https://github.com/textmate/textmate

True, but before Textmate was open-sourced, there was a long period of frustration due to lack of progress and communication from the developer.

Yes, but Textmate 2, after all this time, has less options and is slower than ST2, much less ST3.
