I have already muscular memory of the shortcuts of emacs, that is my very own and personal answer to why.

I paid for Sublime 2 and before I shelled out for 3 I tried VSCode and was blown away it was all I had in Sublime but more lol

Notepad ++ has so many useful tools for data refining quickly. Also the built in macros are super easy to build and toggle. Forever a GOAT.

I use Vim for pretty much everything these days. It’s very customizable.

I use VS Code for building out mid-large projects, and use Spyder when im more brainstorming or working on a file where i want to see multiple variables values at once. VS Code hands down is the Goat IDE

When we put the words in great into goat and the words in goat into great, the tierlist becomes a little better.

VSCode is pretty great. A lot of people who “hate” it that I’ve met mostly hate it because it’s the most popular one to use and you seem to “cool” and “different” if you dislike it. People. It’s just a way to code. Not an aesthetic.

I use VSCodium. It's a FOSS version of VSCode, without Microsoft's spyware
