They have detailed list of new features, with good GIF demos of new features. How can one not like a release post like that?

I'm glad it does. Each version bump, I come over the HN to check out what people have to say. It's an extremely useful tool to me and is developing rapidly. I'm using it, but I don't have as much time as I'd like to study it, so I glance through the comments to see if someone mentions something I'm not aware of that I should know.

I could get more about the product specifically from a good VSCode forum, but they don't seem to have one. A Github Issues page is not a proper user forum. (Maybe they have one now--as I said, I don't keep up as well as I'd like.)

But HN will tell me things about VSCode in a larger context, so I would probably want to keep reading comments here even if VSCode had a proper user forum.
