I like some of the built-in apps they have. They're nicely done and they're fast, I just wish regular Ubuntu would of adopted them into their ecosystem officially. I have no sane way to pull them into POP OS which I prefer for the OOTB experience I have.

Yes, it's based on Ubuntu, but it's not a remix. It's too different to be one:

- no Snap

- Flatpak instead

- Most standard Ubuntu apps missing

- In-house replacements for many Ubuntu standard components: their own browser, their own email client, their own calendar, their own media player, etc.

You can install the Pantheon desktop environment on standard Ubuntu.

P.S. > would of adopted them

* would _have_ adopted. "Would've" is short for "would have" not "would of" which never ever occurs in English. This is a common error but it drives me crazy.

English surprisingly (to most) is a second language for me so apologies, I always seem to forget the little nuance.

Also, I really just want their "Code" editor, but I don't want the headache of compiling it, I want it installed as a package, but its a pain to find it for me, not sure if I'm Googling incorrectly, but their editors name is not SEO friendly at all.

Ok then, you're forgiven. ;-)

As for the editor, I guess you mean this?

Yep! That's the one, its really nicely done, I'm surprised no other distro has adopted it or pulled it into their package management. It's not an overtly complicated editor I don't think, looks to be using standard GTK components which is actually really nice.

It's in a few places, but it's not a helpful name!
