>Dont fuck around with VS code. >VS code is just too incomplete and too easy to experiment with odd ui and plugins.

Why are you saying this ? VS code was built with a client/server architecture so that it can support live collaboration from the ground up, which will probably solve the monitor resolution mismatch problem you mentioned. As for the odd ui and plugins, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

I want to answer this cause I do use vs code. It has made some of the more "infrequent" and hobby tasks I do (think 3d printer firmware) manageable.

VS code is a bad idea for the same reason vim is a bad idea. I can and have sat down at someone else's VS code setup and gone "what the fuck is going on here".

Homginzied, uniform, boring, standard, these are the things you need to have going on to really make it work.

But when pairing in vscode you're not at the mercy of the other persons setup, you can all use your own regular setups but share one "host": https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MS-vsliv...
