Overall, I’ve found JetBrains IDEs to be “nicer” than VS Code.

There’s a level of polish and thoughtfulness in the design that I’ve not found in VS Code.

It’s hard to put into words, because it consists of lots of little things.

Definitely not perfect though. Just better IMO.

In general, I agree. VS Code has always come across as an unhappy middle ground in my personal opinion.

I usually just think: go full power user (Vim/Neovim/Emacs) or completely ready-to-go (Jetbrains). But I just have never felt like VS Code was very great, so I'm certainly biased.

Yeah agree. Jetbrains stuff just feels much more polished.
