I think it's the classic efficiency tradeoff. Centralizing these tools is more efficient for the vendor, for the IT department, for users. It streamlines a bunch of things.
But the tradeoff is increased risk: a single point of failure, a reduction in agency, etc.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer to this question; it depends on the individual case (not just the product, but the customer)
- sirsinsalot 5y agoThe track record with these centralisation trends is that standalone tools get less and less features and attention then die out, leaving little choice. I'd hate to see the existing IDEs like pycharm die
- flashgordon 5y agoInteresting. Would/could this be a motivating function for open source alternatives?
