I don't have problems with bugs as often as I would expect considering the complexity of the IDE ! I'd say it's much better than Visual Studio which is directly comparable.

But there are many annoying issues open for a long time, two I'm struggling with currently :

- integrated terminal rendering performance is atrocious (and I hit this all the time since I use CLI a lot in my workflow)

- remote editing is a false promise feature - it's been there for a year but it's not even close to usable - this is a big deal for me as well and VS code is immeasurably better in this regard

I did a lot of C# recently and (ironically) VS code is terrible for this kind of language, Rider > Visual Studio.

I'm doing some Python now and PyCharm is just barely edging the VS Code. The remote experience is just not comparable and the terminal rendering performance is PITA.

If I was doing TS I wouldn't even bother with IntelliJ.
