> I get that they are extensible, but is that really worth the slowdown to you? Yes it is worth it. I use Atom, which people saying is slower than VS Code, but that's still fine and definitely worth it. I used to use (and still use sometimes) vim but mostly just Atom with vim-mode-plus plugin. It is possible to do all that Atom does in Vim and I have colleagues who are very productive with a heavily customised Vim but somehow, despite using it for years, I only ever used quite basic features. Now I can do the things in Atom that I could not bring myself to learn in Vim. In any case, editor performance is the least of my worries. Most of my time is spent waiting for stuff to deploy and tests to be done, meetings etc. rather than actually writing code. :(
