I switched to platformio in vscode (and command line) a few months ago after using arduino ide for over a decade.

Can’t recommend it enough. Faster startup. Repeatable builds. The abilty to save your image and then flash on many devices. Build time parameters. Also allows access to some functionality that is not possible using arduino build process due to how arduino compiles and processes sketches.

Yeah. There is no reason to even touch the Arduino IDE anymore now that PlatformIO is so good.
