Why not just use vscode if you want a more featured experience, and vim/neovim if you want a minimalistic experience?

(not including the fact that Microsoft owns vscode and that some parts are not open source, im aware of that, so no need to mention it)

    Honestly getting VS Code to work like Emacs does for me would be a huge undertaking. Its simply closer to how I want to use a text editor.

    For example, debuggin - use GDB - integrates with Emacs. Move around - use Evil. Interact with Git - Magit. Terminal - Eshell. Syntax highlighting - tree-sitter, and of course, LSP for actually jumping around and refactoring with some smarts.

    Its quite simple and elegant. Sure, its not accessable since its all keyboard shortcuts.
