I use VS Code daily, and most of the time I have a single workspace open with everything in it, probably more than a thousand repos.

Checking now, the workspace contains ~3.7 million files. I have had no perceivable performance issues with the editor, it works like a champ. Granted I have a beefy machine, but VS Code has been a pleasure from my first impression. For my needs, it's a great development environment.

Recently I onboarded someone to set up remote SSH editing. It did require a few technical steps, but after that they were joyous to see how well it works - a "game changer" in their words, saving them a lot of time and effort.

Absolutely agree with the remote SSH being a game changer - it is seamless and works amazingly well.

Since the start of lockdown I've been using it to remote edit from my laptop into my dekstop still at the office and it has been a flawless experience.

Compared to laggy and visually-aliased remote desktop experience (I did this for a while a few years ago and I ended up feeling see-sick after a while), or the faff of remotely mounting disks, it has been utterly seamless.
