I switched because my workplace has licenses for VSPro, and IT doesn't want us grabbing our own stuff off the internet.

What a disappointment! it's worse, and harder to use in almost every way. For the record I'm coding in Python and just need git integration and a debugger.

It's such a step back in design language and usability. Love to ignore free software in favor of its expensive "professional" counterpart shatter

That they share a name is misleading as vscode has infinitely more in common with atom than visual studio.

Visual Studio is great for .NET but lmao at trying to use it for python.

Also sucks that you have an IT department that considers the threat model for installing & using the latter as any different than the former.

Still salty they killed the only decent Electron-based editor just to slap the M$ name on it and inject a ton of non-free telemetry.

Hey now, don't revise history you're not doing their pre-acquisition plagarism justice.
