I have exactly the same workflow: VSCode when I want a specific extension and Sublime as a fallback.

I think a lot of people don’t notice the difference but I can’t un-notice it.

Huge generated files and whatnot, VSCode just spins but Sublime opens them instantly.

Not to knock VSCode: it’s amazing what they’ve done especially comparing it to other web-stack apps (like what is Slack doing that it’s slower than VSCode with 6 extensions running?!).

Even when things are running smoothly, the just-perceptible delay in switching files or a slight stutter scrolling feels like the digital equivalent of working with a cheap tool.

The cheap ratchet is a little sloppy and occasionally the pawl doesn’t catch but it still does all the same stuff. Yet Snap-On still has customers.
