If you're wondering why the downvotes, the great editor war is the reason. I think your comment is valid, but what you could of said which makes the most sense to me is: VSCode has changed the way you yourself code on Unix / Linux as opposed to the way "EVERYONE" codes on Linux, if everyone dropped Vi(m) and Emacs for VSCode then that would speak volumes. I agree with you on Atom, though I've encountered an odd issue with VS Code where it freezes up completely on me, not sure what that's about.
