Going to recycle a post I wrote on HN recently: I used VSCode for two years before switching back to Sublime Text. I remember watching this funfunfunction video and thinking how much I related to what he says about becoming addicted to tooling. This was me with VSCode; I was spending a large amount of my work time tweaking it, adding plugins, tweaking plugins, troubleshooting plugins, removing plugins, looking for new plugins, etc.
However, the main kicker that made me switch back to Sublime was that I started it up one day and was astounded by how much snappier and responsive it was compared to my plugin-ridden VSCode. Admittedly, I do miss a lot of the plugins I used to use with VSCode, but at the same time, I'm happy to no longer have to rely on them.
