I'm used to using Vim with a bunch of plug-ins as my IDE. VSCode allows me to get an almost identical setup plus some extra features set up in a fraction of the time. This comes with too big tradeoffs though: customizability and speed. I've found VSCode can get laggy, particularly on older machines or with many plug-ins loaded. There are also all kinds of UI things I find myself unable to configure (status bars etc.).
