Couldn't agree more - love visual studio (on windows), and vs code even more (lighter weight, but less features) when I am on a mac or ubuntu.

Also use Visual Studio on the Mac - that one I could agree is terrible - but hope it will improve over time.

Probably helps that I have used every version of VS since it was released - so like anything else, if you are used to it and use it every day for 20+ years you become biased - but for C# programming, imo, nothing even comes close.

On the Mac I use Rider which is in many ways a huge improvement over Visual Studio. No visual editing of XAML files though, so I am slowly migrating the codebase to use views fully written in C#.
