I dunno man. Like you, I use vim for lighter text editing tasks and JetBrains stuff for times I need to get serious. Your comments make me think that maybe you haven't spent enough time with vscode to appreciate it though. I think for a lot of folks its a really good middle ground and I am pretty sure MS's long game on it is as a replacement for Visual Studio (that might be projection though. I've always hated that IDE...).
I guess I am saying that its a perfectly valid choice as a ones primary editor. I used it for a couple years and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I just happen to prefer vim + Intellij (with vim keybindings of course!!) :)
- DiabloD3 6y agoYou're actually partly right: Microsoft has said they're going to replace the native VS editor with VSCode's editing element. VSCode as an editor seems to be a better editor than VS's editor, so clearly VS can only get better, but the answer isn't replacing VS with VSCode entirely.
- mpawelski 6y agowhat, what? any source where Microsoft said it? That would be great though. Visual Studio then would finally get proper multi cursor support.

I hope not, at least unless VS Code improves heavily I mean, the real VS has its flaws and is giant, but it has times more reliable intellisense and stuff than VS Code
- DiabloD3 6y agoI've heard it both ways from both VS and VSCode users, both claiming their Intellisense works better. Most likely, they just implement a different set of features, and the best outcome would be one IDE that is a superset of both.
