Autocomplete in VS has always been kind of 'meh'... Works OK for Go, should work fine for TS (until your type packages are off, in which case good luck to you), but IntelliJ code completion for stuff like Java and Kotlin is just on another level.

It's very hard to pin point, but if you're developing a large project, you'll notice when autocomplete works 100% of the time (IntelliJ), and 93% of the time (VSCode).

Exactly this. You notice the "smoothness" is off, which when accumulated burns your context faster and kills your flow.

In Java I don't notice many differences in the autocomplete in VsCode (eclipse) vs IntelliJ.
