You took my comment the wrong way.

I don't trust Microsoft and I don't really like VSC.

VSC is made by Microsoft but they have the community who make plugins, report bugs, contribute, spread the word, etc. They have the critical mass to make something like this work while Atom doesn't.

Atom did not die because Microsoft killed it. They didn't have to. They only had to push VSC. Now the original Atom devs are working on another editor (zed.dev) because even they know Atom is done.
