I feel this way for 95% of my system, but the last 5% is important for my ability to focus and work efficiently. An underappreciated aspect of customizability is that you don't have to learn new habits when the defaults change. You can't know your tools if they're constantly changing in ways you can't control or override. I feel like just another dumb user. I've been using VSCode a lot recently, and I just don't feel the motivation to learn anything about it. Learning a tool is for suckers. Just google for what you need right now. No sense going out of your way to remember anything if they're going to pull the rug out from under you next month.
Not a knock against VSCode; I acquired this attitude before I started using it. Maybe if I invested in learning VSCode thoroughly, the investment would pay off. I've just been so thoroughly trained not to treat anything outside the terminal as stable that I can't bring myself to do it anymore.
