The plugin infrastructure for VS Code along with excellent first party support for JS/TS has helped it grow very fast. But in languages other than TS the mishmash of plugins of varying quality really degrade the experience. The opinionated approach and strong first party support just makes Jet Brains product much cleaner. I use both a lot.

Indeed, I haven't used VS Code a lot but my few experiences with it were largely figuring out which of the available plugins for a particular function was the "right" one, with all of them sitting at various levels of "working". The IntelliJ, Sublime, and heck even TextMate 2 plugin experience is cleaner in that regard.
