PyCharm has a great debugger. I am a longtime Pycharm user and have used VScode from time to time for python, and it seems like only now VSCode is catching up.

Pycharm is still better though in the general language support department. However I feel that if you were already a VSCode user, VSCode has become good enough. Pycharm like other IntelliJ based IDEs has many other QoL features which I can't find anywhere else. But if you haven't been using them already I doubt they would seem to make a difference.

For me, it comes down to the cohesiveness of the whole thing. VSCode plugins often feel janky.

The VSCode add-on manager also discriminates against users using VSCodium (The open source build of VSCode without Microsoft's proprietary "telemetry"). They simply will not let you install certain add-ons.
