Same could have/could be said about Jetbrains products. People are likely always going to use vim/emacs and create tooling around whatever new hotness exists for them. And honestly? VS Code is just a new iteration on how vim/emacs work in a lot of ways: Providing a place to edit text and then a bunch of plugins that do things with that text.

And if you want vim/emacs to keep living, then you should spend time helping! Create your own extensions, maintain/contribute to existing ones, etc. They will only die out when the last person actively contributing to them stops, so keep the chain of people going :)
