Why is Atom so much slower than Visual Studio Code? Aren't they both using Electron?

Have you tried installing Source Mage?
It's actually very good for you mental health.

Atom's developers are incompetent

>Visual Studio Code
Botnet!

Turning off telemetry only causes it to send more telemetry about how you disabled telemetry

wew lad

Because it ain't Vim or Emacs. Both are slow as hell and highly unproductive.

>you will never have a atom clone written solely in asm

Have you tried installing vim?
It's actually very good for your mental health.

I thought VS Code is open source while the regular Visual Studio being the one that is bloated and botnet as fuck... Visual Studio literally precompiles telemetry into your program.

anyway I still use VSC because it can basically do anything emacs, vim, spacemacs, etc. can do.

top kike.
Does it do that on linux too?

Trading freedom for convinience.
Shame on you

Visual Studio, the one that precompiles telemetry, is Windows only
Visual Studio Code runs on Linux/Windows/OSx, and it doesn't precompile anything. It isn't even a compiler, just an open source text editor. That is why I still use it

Have you tried pulling the trigger?
It's actually very good for our mental health.

insecure abominations against company-sponsored developers.

yeah I disabled those things, and if I am paranoid enough to believe they have other ways to spy on me, I could always check here if there is anything sneaky: github.com/Microsoft/vscode
and if I find something like that and I still want to stay with VSC, I could always fork it.

>text editor
>needs compiler
JUST USE THE TERMINAL

Can't you just use the built-in terminal emulator for compilation and code runner for testing?

oh please... are you real ?

because vscode developers did a better job optimizing their program
