I've mostly switched over to VS Code from both vim and BBEdit, although I still use both somewhat regularly. It seems to me that VS Code is the 21st-century equivalent of Eight Megabytes And Constantly Swapping — that is, an editor that does a lot at the cost of quite a few CPU cycles and more than a bit of RAM.
While Emacs isn't quite as heavyweight as it was 25 years ago (hooray for Moore's Law), it still makes me grin to see Emacs fans sneer at the resource usage of a modern Electron-based editor.
