        This is the editor wars equivalent of taking your shirt off and yelling “come at me bro!”

          It’s literally just a basic part of debating something. You say X is bad, I say ok, then what’s your alternative?

          I’m this case apparently it’s a clown emoji. So clearly they have a very valid point and definitely weren’t just making an empty pointless comment cause it sounds edgy.

        VS Code is not an IDE is the dumbest most pedantic argument.

        It is a text editor explicitly designed to have plugins that turn it into whatever IDE you want it to be.

        i.e. it’s an IDE that you get to specify yourself rather than being locked into the exact toolchain that the IDE developers think is best.
