Same. With VSCode most plugins "just work" as I expect them too, and it's also usable with 0 plugins.
Atom plugins otoh... they're a s-fest of stuff requiring other stuff and never managing to ever auto-magically just work. For Python and JS VSCode is amazing! Also there's a Jupyter plugin that works, an integrated terminal that just works, making it idea for data-science and ML tasks too...
I have no idea what the Atom guys are doing, because in theory I'd like Atom more, but in practice I fee like wanting to throw my laptop at a wall after 30 min of using it because of how semi-broken everything is.
Does anyone anyone have a "curated" set of Atom configs and plugins that "just work"? Maybe by making it into smth like "a distro", it could be usable for people with 0-to-little-patience like myself...
