Never noticed, didn’t even know it was an electron app until I looked it up, with RAM at $30 for 8GB at most and 16GB being found for $50 it’s easy to use. I use codium though so no telemetry, and it’s easy to setup anywhere and easy for others to understand.
- hvgk 5y agoThat depends if your RAM is soldered in or not.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoWhat are your computer specs? 8GB soldered ram is still sufficient for general usage, as is 16GB ram. If you have less like 4GB you’ll have way more problems in a browser than VS code.
- hvgk 5y agoMy main “personal” computer is a 9th gen ipad these days but for dev stuff I use a bottom end M1 mac mini with 8GB of RAM. This runs VScode absolutely fine but seeing as I mostly write Go on it, I don’t really need the full weight of visual studio code running.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoHaha I thought you used emacs and were bashing vs code because you used it. Why dont you use emacs?
