> Remember when Copilot was basically a super-smart version of Intellisense? It was awesome.

I have only used the Copilot completion for C#, but it was absolutely awful and a net negative not just compared to IntelliSense, but compared to the most basic autocomplete algorithm imaginable. I turned it off after a day.

well you know it kept improving. It got pretty good, though everyone moved to full "agentic" changes over autocomplete.
Maybe it shouldn't have been forced on me if it wasn't ready, then.
I’m sorry you were victimized.
