VS Code is only used this much because it is free. If Microsoft were to charge only $10 for it, its market share would be in the single digits.
It's the same with MS Teams. A bad, sluggish program full of bugs and weird behavior that is only the most used conferencing software because it is included in the Enterprise Office subscription anyways.

Only that if I'm going to give money, I'd rather do it to pretty much any company that's not Microsoft. I would probably pay for JetBrains stuff at that point, even though I could never get used to their products. > It's the same with MS Teams. A bad, sluggish program full of bugs and weird behavior Teams is the worst. VS Code OTOH is not bad (subjective, of course), definitely not sluggish (it's faster than emacs on my laptop, except when opening it the first time - which happens at most once a day) or full of bugs (at least none that get in the way of me doing my job efficiently).
