  In all fairness, VSCode is awesome. And I used to be ABM (Anything But Microsoft).

    Vscode is not bad, but the pinnacle if textediting is neovim. That’s a war for another thread, greetings emacs guys.

    I didn't have much interest but there was enough hype that I tried it but found it too slow being used to sublime text. I know lots of others like it a lot though.

    last I heard though is they are removing the macos version. which would mean that anyone who likes it enough would need to switch from mac, which sounds too convenient for me to be an accident. I don't know how many would actually make this switch, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and I'm sure there are scenario where development teams are very used to vscode and the ecosystem and perhaps ingrained enough into their workflow that it makes more sense to them to have the team switch to windows to keep using vscode instead of rewriting solutions and/or having the developers spend time to relearn and get up to speed with another editor and plugins etc.

      VS for Mac (the discontinued one) is different from VS Code.

    Yeah but they hide some really useful extensions behind official VSCode with telemetry wall. Other than that it’s a cool editor.
