I'm not sure anyone really enjoys working with Visual Studio anymore. It was compelling, back in the day, when I was doing desktop apps. But for web development I just don't think it has any real edge over other tools in this space.
In my experience it's also a resource hog. I have to quit and restart it every so often to keep it from bogging everything down.

- pjmlp 5y agoFor desktop apps it depends, for classical Forms/WPF/MFC it is fine as always, for anything related to UWP/WinUI it is a mess currently.
