Jetbrains IDEs are an industry standard, and has a quantified ROI on time saved.

First thing to think about: Pycharm is an IDE, VSCode is an editor. You're going to bloat VSCode to get anywhere near the functionality of Pycharm.

I believe jetbrains products have made me a better developer as it should provide more context and intellisense to give you guidance away from code smells and bad practices, without becoming a crutch (moreso for statically typed languages).

Also, very fond of the keybindings on macos as they mirror chrome, os, and electron applications.
