I don’t really understand “influence over your work” here. I agree that there’s a possibility MS will add some kind of monetisation I don’t like in the future... at which point I’ll switch editors. But as it is, I’m much faster and efficient using VS Code than I am using Vim. It is in no way a “toy”. And it doesn’t influence my work. It’s a text editor!
