Off topic but I'll be that guy: I am continually blown away by just how good VSCode is and how it very much overcame two huge obstacles: being an election app, and its poisonous name.
- manigandham 8y agoPoisonous name? Are you referring to Visual Studio? That's widely considered as one of the best IDEs around.
- JBiserkov 8y agoYes. At the same time it's hated by many anti-MS folks, especially in the Linux/OS X crowd.
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y agoIf people choose to hate it for fanboy reasons that's their loss.
- TimTheTinker 8y agoI don’t know any anti-MS folks anymore. Those who were that generally stopped hating MS when MS stopped being a threat to the existence of their preferred platform, or to open source in general.
- manigandham 8y agoIf people hate it just because they're "anti-MS" instead of based on product qualities then it's not the name that's poisonous.
