extensions tend to be the slow part in my experience. after a couple heavy extensions on an already struggling work laptop I’ll frequently outpace it’s input handling and have to wait for it to catch up
They certainly can be. Admittedly over time I’ve installed a lot of extensions but also gotten better hardware along the way. All I know is that despite having like 20 extensions installed I can startup vs code in just 3-5 seconds
Vs code will get annoyingly slow even in vanilla setups when editing large files. Personally I can tell the difference in did compared to sublime text even without plugins, it’s not enough to be too annoying which is why I was ok with switching, but it just feels better when it’s lighting fast since the input lag piles up in a text editor since you’re typing really quick the whole time.
