Curious about your thought process to leave VSCode for vim? I've been a long time vim user, but I've seemingly just surrendered to the ease of installing high quality extension in VScode. Just seems to work as advertised without me toiling in some config setup (vimrc)

I use the Vim extension in VSCode for editing with my vim muscle memory, even though it has occasional snags/surprises

I really left IntelliJ (Python and Go) for Vim. I wanted to give Vim a good try anyway. My motivation was how ridiculously heavy IntelliJ is on resources

I was doing Rust in VSCode and liked it but the Python support in VSCode was pretty terrible, and Go was so-so (Refactor/Rename tends to rename about 50% of the occurrences if you're lucky), so I wanted to try to concentrate everything in one editor.

The downside for a language like Python without strong type system is the need to use the debugger super often, and I haven't gotten my command-line debugging chops up yet. The IntelliJ debugging experience is really, really nice.
