> The VS Code extension for Go, built using many of these tools, is now used by 41 percent of Go developers
That's impressive, I didn't realize VS Code is that popular nowadays.

The latter is a licensed product, I had to pull some strings to get a license at my current job. Well worth it though, I worked in VS Code earlier but it wasn't as complete as IDEA. For example, in my particular case I work in an older codebase targeting ES5 (no transpilers or whatever) and PHP 5.3; setting the language mode to those, I get warnings if I try to use PHP's short array syntax or ES6+ specific functions. At the same time I'm working on a replacement in Typescript/React and Go. It just works without a hassle, and I get things like go to definition and common refactorings working out of the box.
I still do my builds and running on the commandline though, it has to be portable.
