I've been using VSCode for C# daily for a year or two. I'm considering switching to a non-electron editor because of how slow and sluggish it is, including IntelliSense, refactoring, syntax highlighting and the latency and frame rate of actual rendering (huge drain on the battery if you have one). The editor doesn't (seem to) support language-integrated syntax highlighting, so no ambiguous language features get recognized and there's plenty of bugs (such as with around the C#7 ValueTuple syntax feature). The C# extension tends to freeze a couple of times a day. One feature that excels out of nowhere is the search functionality which greps entire folders almost instantly, probably because the functionality is delegated to a separate (native, I presume) process. JSON-with-schema-based configuration is something more software should have. The editor also starts pretty fast but most features are delegated to extensions which load (ultra)lazily and aren't usable for a few (5-30) seconds.
