Pretty much every one agrees one about the difference being that one
looks excessively ugly, is something that the world does not need, has
developers hard to get along with who have an irresponsible release
policy and fail to get to grips with reality.
Unfortunately there is no agreement about which of the two editors is
that (some would even claim the same for both). So you probably need
to find out yourself.
