But but, "Microsoft isn't the same anymore!" VSCode is open! And good!

The narrative has really pulled in Microsoft's favor and I think that's not too our advantage. Every conversation I have with them is about how they "used to be bad but are great for open source now".

Visual Studio has been top product from the beginning of M$. If it was not open, then it was heavily pirated for personal use.
