I'll add to your Java anecdote: JetBrains editors appear to be the most sophisticated across multiple languages. PyCharm is a pleasure to use with Python, Rust, and Typescript. Perks include catching errors on its own (eg before compile in Rust or TS, and don't even need to run Python's type checker), auto-complete, and refactoring. In comparison, VsCode appears to only understand these languages at a surface/syntax level.
I don't like this situation: I wish there were more competition, but it appears one company has the edge at present. I use VsCode for one-off files, since Jetbrains isn't a good fit for these.
