Shots fired

Oh wait that's actually probably it haha. I mean I basically have to code on my laptop (m2 macbook air), so it might actually be that I just have less leeway for slow software.
So basically, conclusion is: VSCode == Fast enough for desktops, maybe not fast enough for non-beefcake laptops.
I had an Intel Mac before (2017 I think?) and the M2 felt like a huge upgrade at the time. My main home machine is faster though because like you said it's a desktop. It definitely feels faster than the mac laptop on most things but it's surprising how often they feel comparably snappy.

Is it business critical if it can be done elsewhere for cheaper/free?
Yeah, that's the reasoning they have. It works with VSCode. Ish.

Well I don't know about the MacBook air and maybe I'm behind the times but I feel like the M2s are fast. I do most of my work on a MacBook pro M2. I think it's about 3 years old now
No I do find the MacBook Air pretty snappy in general. It's just that I do feel an actual very noticeable snappiness difference between VSCode and Sublime/Zed; especially for switching between files within a project. I can still be productive in VSCode (in fact, I think it was the best text editor for a short time when they had the best syntax highlighting of the lighter-ish-text editors). But once LSP was integrated in Sublime, I switched back. Zed feels fast snappy for me, though. So I've been using that more.

Interesting. I used Sublime a long time. I actually thought it was a dead project now.

Funny how such companies don't care that employees would be more effective with better tools and those license prices would result in way over $20/month profit.

it doesn't have as many features as the other editors these days, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend. But I used it for more than 10 years, so my configs and plugins pretty tuned to exactly how I like. So it's my comfy place. And it still feels faster than pretty much everything, sans some terminal editors (but those aren't as comfy for me).

Maybe I just have a shitty computer, but I feel like as good as intelliJ is, it's very slow compared to VScode. And fuck me if I'm trying to do anything in Android Studio.
It is slower. It's a fully fledged IDE, VSCode is not so it will always be way faster, but that's again this meme, JetBrains IDE's are super powerful so I guess you can say what it lacks in speed it got in power. It's also written in Java so it's memory heavy, but it is what it is.
I use both and I enjoy both. I would never however use JetBrains to open and edit a single file, its way to slow for that.

Recently switched to a new contract, which resulted in me switching from IDEA Ultimate to vscode. This picture is terribly accurate.
In intellij I usually do code reviews by checking out the code and comparing the branch to origin/main to step through the changes. Just a right click menu option to compare branches.
I took for granted that this is just a thing IDEs should do, so I looked in vain for a while before googling it and finding out I need a plugin for that. (If I'm wrong please help me find the button, I still believe it must be in there somewhere. Surely the owners of GitHub can compare branches?)
I use that extension called GitLenses, it provides a fair bit of git tools. Not sure if it has what you want as I use JetBrains more and usually do git on CLI anyways

Arent they like $100/yr a pop? Thats less than what adobe charges for photoshop.
Yes, if you use some of them, if you use more of them they become more expensive so the toolbox is a good idea. Still expensive, but usually if you need this you either are a power user or you make money on what you are doing.

No need. Looking at the age of users of emacs vs others we'll live a long time
That's mostly because using inferior software causes stress and stress is unhealthy.

Lol wow, intelliJ? Shit's slow as fuck
it isn't particularly slow if you have enough RAM and it has indexed the project

No mention of KDevelop? ;__;
I like it because it is the pretty much only FOSS graphical IDE where the edit-compile-debug cycle works. I'm been using it for last 10y for C/C++/Python, and it recently gained LSP support. (ported from Kate)

Honestly I think I like Java better than C++ because with all that complexity at least you get memory safety, actually readable errors, and portable code. C# is great but Linux support is spotty.
I freakin love Java

Intello sense still won't find the Godot classes
(linux & C#)What about Rider?

I personally found VSCode slower.
You need a decent machine to run iJ, but it's worth it and it's really fast when you have enough RAM to give it. I recommend at least 32, but I have 64.

What about Rider?
Is that a plugin?

You guys use editors? Real programmers only need a mechanical hard drive, a magnetized needle and a steady hand.
Like a code tattoo.

If you want everything bundled instead of à la carte, that sounds more like eclipse to me. But then, I don't understand how anyone can program in Java.
