vscode isn't popular for being vscode
there was already atom back in the days
vscode became popular because it was "relatively" "faster" than atom, and was better at being hackable
vscode is now insanely popular due to its ecosystem, the people and their plugins made vscode popular
Re: Microsoft/Office 365 - I was referring to their development to shift to cloud first strategy. They still haven’t made online collaboration as seamless as Google yet - but given them not wanting to break backward (onprem/file) capability, they are doing a good job.
I do agree Teams is trying to be a jack of all trades master of none at the moment.
Do you mean the web-based Outlook? I find the traditional desktop Outlook is unbeaten for business email/calendar.
Strongly agree on Teams though.

Curious - what is your preferred Git platform? We're about to migrate away from Bitbucket for... a lot of reasons.
I use GitLab professionally.
It used to be light years ahead of GitHub, but with actions, code spaces, private repos and Jira like stuff being released in GH that's not the case anymore.
IMO you can't go wrong with either GitLab or GitHub nowadays, both are great at what they do.
GitHub is okay-ish.
But Office 365? Teams is prob one of the worst apps I use nowadays. It consumes so much memory and cpu you would think it's actually mining crypto.
Outlook is also a joke.
Excel got better IMO.
No strong opinions for other apps.
