I just saw this story and I want to ditch VSCode https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/vscode-extensions-with-9-million-installs-pulled-over-security-risks/

I switch between VSCode and Notepad++ depending on what I am doing.
Not sure why you would ditch a program for correctly responding to a security threat.
This. At work i use visual studio ( .net wpf/blazor/maui ) with vscode on the side. At home i use vscodium for my .net/c/c++ work and sometimes notepad++ for other c stuff. Depends if i open 1 file quickly or working on a project
Because I’m looking for FOSS right now

Is the closest. It is literally VSCode without the MS telemetry.
Do you mean https://vscodium.com/ ?
Ditto. I also don’t use off brand plugins. Just the ones I need from major publishers.
Neovim (heavily customized configuration) + tmux for me. Switched from Jetbrains IDE and VSCode to this ~5 years ago. I use neovim with every language.
Fast to use, one app for all and I have customized that to my liking and I already spent half of my time in terminal while working anyway. + knowing how to use vim helps a lot when configuring servers remotely.
Neovim
Same. I’ve had a few big config purges and migrations every few years, but I’m always neovim.
I started using Neovide as a frontend so people could follow what I’m doing (it adds animated cursor movement, etc.) I actually found that I really like it and rarely use a terminal to run neovim now.
I use JetBrains IDEs. IntelliJ, Pycharm, Goland, and Webstorm.
Emacs with evil-mode or when I am banging around the console, neovim.
I write code every day at my job. I use vim.
It does everything I need it to do, and it works exactly the same way on every system I touch, and functions the same way since I started using it decades ago (aside from being able to use arrow keys now instead of hjkl)
If I HAVE to do any coding on Windows, I use notepad++.
Why not use gvim on Windows? That’s my “IDE” on Windows. Though with modern versions of Windows, trying to run vim in the Command Prompt isn’t a complete disaster like it was in the past.
“IDE” in quotes because I consider vim a text editor, and I don’t try to make it an IDE with a bunch of plugins.
VSCode cuz I couldn’t find a good open source alternative written in c++ or rust that isn’t just a terminal text editor that needs a trillion plugins/configs to run (I would have tried zed if they ever made a version for windows, seems like the most promising ide to vsc)
VSCodium is the best we can get for now it seems.
VSCode at work, VSCodium at home
I use emacs for almost everything. It took time to get used to. And some time to configure things. But now I’m just riding off my years old config files and packages I wrote as my use case haven’t changed.
I use python, rust, C, R, jupyter notebook, org mode, latex, markdown, PDFs, xml, org-roam, etc.
For an actual IDE, Jetbrains. But I rarely need an actual IDE and will just generally use Vim for everything.
Visual Studio Professional mostly because it is included for my job and we develop on mostly Microsoft stack. VS Code for simple text editing outside of a project.
Helix. I hate tweaking my ide. I just want to launch it and get to work. Setting up my LSP/formatter/theme is the most i’m willing to put up with and that’s all Helix asks for to be an IDE.
Pulsar because I am (or at least was and will be, I’ve been a bit absent recently) part of the team developing it. Its a fork of Atom to continue development after GitHub pulled the plug, entirely community developed and focused.
As an ex atom user I’m using Pulsar right now.
I used and loved Pulsar for a while, it was neat and I enjoyed using it, kudos for your work…
VSCode with VsVim or whatever plugin. It has the combination I like. Multi-cursor fills in most of the gaps I don’t like.
I’ve tried Neovim variants a few times. I usually get stuck at something and don’t have the time to figure it out. I need to take that time to learn everything and get it right but I get tired.
I keep using emacs, mainly because it has an innovative ecosystem that provides interesting ways to work - meow, consult, corfu, eglot, treesitter - so cool how these pieces for together.
