VSCode is better than many, but I do think it counts as bloated, has reasonably high recommended machine requirements, and performs more poorly than I would expect of such an application.

It does perform better than IJ and the like, but that's a bit of damning with faint praise.

I don't comment beyond that on it as I don't use it more than I have to (for reasons unrelated to it being Electron-based) and want to avoid Speaking Of That I Know Not. I was speaking about Electron more generally.
