alt Hacker NewsI really tried to give vscode an honest shot.
I couldn't find anything about it that was even half as good as a real text editor.
It made writing code feel like a chore. I usually love writing code.

What is a real text editor, by your estimation? NVim? Emacs? Genuinely curious.
I use VSCode/Codium since I maintain a GUI stack for general usage. But I have all the terminal tools installed for my work there as well. I hate customizing things too, which I find is necessary if you want to get the most out of terminal text editors. VSCode is pretty good out of the box, with terminal access and everything built in.
Jeez, I hope this doesn't turn into a text editor flame war...
