Please don't get me started on VScode. That is basically a remote execution environment. Just adding an extension and opening a file has the cheek to ask if what is on your filesystem is trusted immediately after downloading several tens of megabytes of who knows what for language server and parser.
I was using it for LaTeX stuff and programming but I shelved it. I'm on a Mac so it's system provided vim for me and the Apple command line dev tools, mostly for git, llvm and make. It works and I don't need or use any extensions for it or pull anything else onto my computer.
