The last time I opened VSCode was a few months ago. My work has shifted to other things, so I needed it a little less than before. I really hoped that VSCode could be an Emacs replacement, but I think that's a bigger job for me to pursue than I want to commit to. For me, Emacs is not perfect, but it has always been the most versatile software I worked with. It's very much (and I want it to really be) the everything text editor. I got the interaction model (with a few good modes) burnt into my brain. I find it hard to get used to anything else (I usually also end up installing plugins to emulate Emacs in other editors/IDEs, but they never as good as Emacs itself.) VSCode does get a lot of things right out-of-the-box: the interface is snappier when doing things like code completions and language plugins are rather consistent with little effort. But that's where it stops for me. At least I understand its popularity.
