> Battery could be problematic indeed, but before looking at my text editor, I would probably first switch from KDE to i3, and then use a lightweight web browser. This would impact it much more than my text editor.
This item is about VS Code consuming 13 % CPU when idle, which is bigger than the difference in idle CPU between KDE and i3 (if you don't have fancy widgets, it's about ~nil).
