    Ooh, a flame war 🔥🔥🔥 ! It has been so long since I was involved in one, thank you 🙋🏻‍♀️! 😊

    Who uses visual code to something else than writing and launching vode? I only uses it for C#/Godot on Linux but it has all the bells and whistles to make it an IDE IMO (BTW anyone who doesn’t code in C/C++ is weak ofc ☺️! 🔥).

    Let me just add that jetbrains (at least pycharm) have started their enshittification death cycle, and I’m looking for a lightweight python IDE that doesn’t hallucinate (but lets you use venm and debug), if you have any ideas I’m listening!

    Cheers

      I wanna clarify that when i say VS Code I’m talking about Visual Studio Code. I was only commenting on the difference between Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code because you said you downloaded Visual Studio and was confused why a text editor was 30gb, and it’s possible you downloaded the IDE rather than the text editor. I apologize if you thought i was talking about Visual Code; I wasn’t.

      And i agree that JetBrains has started to enshittify but I also think their enshittification has been pretty slow because they sell professional tools that still have to perform the basic functionality of an IDE. And for the modt part I’ve been able to disable all AI features save the ones I’m required to use at work (yay AI usage metrics ;-;)
