Code has become hands down my favorite editor. I don't use the debug often, but it's passable. Just depends on your needs and use. I'd suggest giving it a try for a couple weeks (just to get past any initial pain points).
I tried to use the git UI that it provides, but in the end preferred to manage my vcs from the terminal.
I'm reasonably happy with it - and I didn't think this was going to be the case when I first tried it out.
There's also keymap extensions to emulate keybinds from other IDEs. You should try it at least.
And VSCode doesn't take 30s to launch.
I did use the JetBrains Goland for around 3 months since I heard some praise from my co-workers but found that it'd didn't contribute much.
The debugging works as well in VSCode as it does in Goland but yes, delve (the debugger backend) crashes sometimes when debugging goroutine heavy code.
Completions, refactorings, renames, linting and goimports all work flawlessly.
Would seriously recommend VSCode + Golang.
For JavaScript and family VSCode is the best from what the Frontend team in my organisation tells me.
