I use vim as my primary editor. I've tried a number of times to pick up VSCode. The functionality is there. The modal keybindings are there. But yet it lags and I can deal with it in the short term but over the course of a day my frustration mounts and I end up going back.

There's a difference as well between refresh/frame rate and input lag. It is very much possible for a game to have a consistent 60hz frame rate but yet lag. Lag can come from delays in the input subststem, it can come from buffering before display, it can come from the display itself.
