@CodeMonkeyG Please do explain why.
@aul12 good point! 👍
@AlexDeLarge I am asking for subjective or any kind of opinion. You gave none.
Also, amount of people who took this personally is too high xD -
@RantSomeWhere I have seen people bashing visual code, saying it's shit and saying that using vim is better. I cannot see how it is better, I know it is different but all I asked for is an honest opinion why would people rather use Vim and hate on VS Code. Thanks.

Especially when it's supercharged with vim's shortcuts. 😁
But yeah, VS Code is just way easier -
Oh now I see, people here figured I was talking about Visual studio? 😂 Guys, https://code.visualstudio.com . Cross platform "text editor" on steroids.
-
Also, I am asking because of comments on this rant https://devrant.com/rants/1525914/...

@DanijelH Sorry, my humor can be quite dry sometimes. I meant it as a joke to add fuel the flamewar that you would start with such a question. :)

sain24243086yIt's hard to explain why vim is better to people who don't use vim.
Once you get used to vim, you can't live without it. -
bahua128016yThey're used for different things. Vim is a better text editor, usable anywhere, and vscode is designed for editing code, and forces you to use it in a graphical desktop. That alone makes vscode a nonstarter for me.

@CodeMonkeyG Oh I see, missed that but good one! (:
@RantSomeWhere Most of the things you said applies to vscode also, you can do amazing stuff and there's a ton of extensions. There is also Vim extension for vscode. You can find few comparisons online between the two but since I like to see 4myself and have tried practically every other editor out there(sublime, notepad++, atom, brackets), I will try Vim also!
