Yeah trying to switch from VSCode to Nova was the opposite experience for me.
For a while, I had that same nostalgia... everything looked great... but then, nothing really worked, the plugins were all kind of bad (half of my work is Golang, which Nova does not support), and VSCode allows you to have the same stuff on all three major platforms.
I realized the Mac software from your studios looked great, and yeah had unified Mac feel unlike the messiness of Windows world, but usually had worse functionality. (And they were all always paid.)
There was recently an article from Sketch, that says, how proud they are to have a native app in 2020.

Yeah, nice, but... Figma is not native, it has a "worse" looking/feeling app, but... allows you to collaborate instantly - it's "collaboration first", not a feature side-bolted to existing app. And it can be run anywhere.
Chromium is horrible in abstract (why do I need to take whole Chrome with every app?). But they win where matters I guess.
