VSCode is a good, fast editor that has great flexibility and an extensive feature set out of the box. Sorry Sublime, but VSCode is just better.

I used Sublime since 2015, and after using VSCode for several months, I realized I’m not going back to Sublime. Their plugins ecosystem is totally broken, every plugin is abandoned.

Vim and other bigoted editors can go fuck themselves. Unlike Vim users, I have actual work to do, so I don’t have time to polish my configs. I want things working out of the box.

    What languages are you using in VS Code?

    It's the best text editor, but for my purposes I prefer an IDE.

    it's 2023, all the config you need in vim is a lsp server.

    @antigermanist I'm too stupid for Vim as my primary editor, I only use it on my servers

    Hmmmm I used an IDE because I want things to work out the box, it's one of the (many) reasons I don't like VSCode (I miss Atom)

    @BordedDev VSCode is just a less beautiful, more practical, way faster Atom. It was clearly inspired by Atom.

    @int32 JS, TS, HTML, CSS, SQL

    @kiki I find it to be less practical and more cumbersome. Glad you like it, enjoy what you enjoy :D

    @BordedDev but Atom is way slower though, isn't it?

    @int32 oh come on you're not stupid <3

    it's not that hard, it just have a learning curve.

    Actual programming is way more complicated than vim

    @kiki Nah, when Atom was around it was faster for me

    @BordedDev when was that exactly? I bet VSCode was slower on launch, but now it’s as fast as Sublime

    @kiki And Atom isn't developed anymore. Last I used VSCode was a couple of years ago for some embedded development (and trying cursor more recently, but I don't consider a couple of minutes of having it open as "usage")

    @jestdotty everybody hated atom when it was around

    "Vim and other bigoted editors can go fuck themselves. Unlike Vim users, I have actual work to do, so I don’t have time to polish my configs. I want things working out of the box."

    lmaoooo, this is so true. I have a script to **build** my editor config files.

    I don't like VSCode, but take my plusplus nonetheless.

    @kiki Yeah for JS, TS, HTML, CSS and SQL it's fine. I was trying to make it play nice with PHP, but it broke often and made me use bad words, so I switched to PhpStorm. I am much calmer now lol.

    @int32 VSCode wasn’t even out when I touched PHP last time :D
