Exactly. With VS Code in existence, I'm not sure why they're wasting their time. This isn't a huge need for folks right now.

And VSCode is just one of many that run on Linux. This feels like some sort of a unwritten rule that if you are making a new DE you also have to make a new text editor (ElementaryOS makes Code, KDE makes Kate, Gnome makes Gnome Text Editor) which honestly is a bit ridiculous to me.

it's not as ridiculous when you install your DE as a bundle of packages

VS Code is in an entirely separate category. This is a text editor, not an extensible code editor.
