The only thing that matters to me is JetBrains stuff seems to actually understand my code. i.e. it never fails to be able to jump me to references if I cmd+click a symbol, it's never messed up an automatic refactor (like a variable rename or something), etc. And it just works out of the box. I've never been able to configure VS Code to work in a way that's anywhere approaching intelligent. Maybe there's a way but I don't want to be messing with plugins and settings. And every time I've tried I just get frustrated and give up. I keep it installed for quick one-off text editing cause it launches faster than JB, but Fleet might just replace it for that usecase now.
