This is getting downvoted but how is this not good? Perhaps if you are adamant about not having this feature in your editor?

It’s an extension so it can be deactivated. That’s good. But it is a lot of effort and time invested on a feature no one requested, to shoehorn people into workflows that have been proven to be unproductive and introduce another telemetry spying vector. While several performance issues and years old bugs remain ignored. So of course people hate it.

At least the spying vector is open.

Article says:
So… maybe you won’t be able to deactivate it anymore. Not cool, microsoft (but totally expected).

At my last job there were several people using copilot very successfully, some even had the paid subscription, and clearly it was very useful to them. I tried it and found it not that good, barely saves me any time and sometimes actively wastes time, but that’s me. I won’t judge if others want to use it, as long as the code gets reviewed by humans, like during a pull request (and it was, in our case).
It’s just a tool. Just because I don’t find it very useful, I shouldn’t tell others not to use it.

One thing I don’t like though, the article says:
So … you won’t be able to deactivate it anymore? not cool, it I interpreted it correctly.

But the poor performance is due to TypeScript and later this year they will release a Go compiler that will make it 10 times faster.
