The VSCode plugin still requires me to install software in the computer itself. Mermaid may be slightly more cumbersome to write, but the ease of setting it up everywhere and the way it integrates all over the place is much superior. Also the pricing for the TALA engine, which is presumed to be where the future of d2 and whatever future differentiating features it may get, is pretty crazy for personal use.
