What do you use instead?

SEU for Midrange development, and Eclipse for Java development. And of
the two, I find SEU much easier to work with, but even Eclipse is less
frustrating than VSCode.

And if I want to do a nesting trace, I do it the old fashioned way: on
hardcopy, with fountain pens in five colors.

Then again, the newest development tool out of Microsloth that I
actually *like* is QBX. Which is decades old.


Ahh.. there's the real reason. You don't like MS. :) If you think
Eclipse was better than VS code (for RPG with the RPG plugins), I'd sense a
little confirmation bias towards Open Source there. :) Or you'd still be
using it.
