I'm a bit surprised at how many of my friends have jumped ship to Visual Studio Code, including those who are very much for free software. They have always been in the business of embrace, extend, extinguish[0]. People tend to forget how evil M$ used to be because recently they have seemed like a beacon for Open Source, but I think they are just still evil[1]. I think we're still dealing with the same Microsoft that we've dealt with through the 90s. They are not a champion of open source, and they are still up to their old tricks.[2] [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31966414 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31966414 [1] https://keivan.io/the-day-appget-died/ https://keivan.io/the-day-appget-died/ [2] https://social.platypush.tech/@blacklight/108719097530863121 https://social.platypush.tech/@blacklight/108719097530863121
