VSCode has started to aggressively force its AI slop stuff down my throat, which has turned me off from using it. JetBrains, thus far, is much less aggressive with its AI offerings. And while yes, everything can be turned off, just like all the adware and spyware in Microsoft Windows can be turned off, I'm just not interested in using a product whose defaults are _this_ anti-consumer.
- zb3 1y agoCan't really agree since I use.. Gemini Code Assist there (obviously due to its generous free quota). GitHub copilot - at least in my case - needed to be manually configured, so I'm not sure which feature are you referring to.
- askonomm 1y agoI'm referring to NOT wanting AI in my code editor, nor any dialogs, sidebars, popups or ads of any kind for AI offerings.
