GitHub, who started and currently maintain Atom, have announced that they're sunsetting it[^1]. This is probably due to Microsoft's acquisition of GitHub and the runaway success of VSCode. Someone could maintain a fork, but I don't think the future looks too bright for Atom. Also, in my experience, Atom's performance is pretty weak (Electron).
Personally, when I want something a little more graphical than neovim, I turn to Sublime Text. It's not free software, so I'm hesitant to recommend it, but it's usually good enough to get the job done.
