VSCode is cross platform, what does Visual Studio do that it can't?
We build games for PS4 and Xbox One, as far as I know neither SDK has integrations for VS Code. Can you do assembly view and memory editing in VS Code by the way? I honestly don't know.

Paint3D is an atrocious, poorly-designed app. Tools are all over the place, familiar shortcuts have disappeared, and the UI looks like it was designed for the Windows 8 vision of Windows-on-a-tablet. No thanks. WIN+R, mspaint, ENTER--every time.
Paint.NET is a worthy replacement to MSPaint, and I'm glad it exists. It IMO manage to balance simplicity and features that is quite accessible to an average user.

VS Code isn't an IDE, as much as people want it to be
This wasn't argumentative, this was a genuine question - could you shed some light?
Makes sense - if you don’t need them why have them installed. I wish operating systems had better ways to let you install less stuff .
Yeah like 90% of the live Linux distros would be much smaller if they cut GIMP and LibreOffice
My predictions Sometime within the next 2 years, Microsoft will release Word3D, which will be a text editor written in Electron and which will consume 100MB of memory to edit a 1KB text file.

I use wordpad to open text files with LF line breaks -- notepad chokes on the missing CR.
that was fixed in windows 10, so you don't need to use wordpad and risk random characters getting inserted into your text files because you inadvertently used a formatting feature.

But paint is the default app for opening images, because of course, if you want to go through your 1200 holiday pics, you want to open them one by one in paint one after the other! Thanks God Microsoft wisely resets my default away from irfanview when they (force) upgrade my OS!
The default program for opening images is Photos, though.
Either way not OK to fuck with users default apps.

Use rufus to burn a linux iso and install over the top. No more windows. Really need something? Run it in wine. Break away from Microsofts abusive ecosystem.
If I could just run an exe and Wine would detect what winetricks I need and install them then, that’d be great. (No, I can’t just install them all as I like to use different prefixes for each program)

It has integrated git. It has integrated debuggers. It has integrated database tools. It has integration on tap, with extensions.
