Is it though? Considering the amount of time you spent in it and the potential productivity increase it might give you I’d consider it very fairly priced.
Used to be that you had to jump through some hoops to make it work - make your own makefiles and stuff. Now, all the major vendors of MCUs are starting to develop vscode plugins as their “IDE” instead of those horrible ultramodified eclipse installs.
VSCode isn’t even that good, idk why people are obsessed with it.
For anything compiled, Jetbrains beats it 100:1, and for anything interpreted it’s a couple tiers better than Kate.
Personally, I won’t be losing sleep if I have to stop using VSCode.
If jetbrains is that much better really depends on the language. Also, jetbrains shit is damn expensive, so not a fair comparison.

I use vscode because I do a lot of embedded.
