Did any of these VS Code forks yet fix their issues from official marketplace access leading to extensions being severely outdated and ripe with security issues?

#562Vibe coding has taken a way to where its become psychological, and these days all I work with is just a "fast apt" solution like Cursor's Composer 1, I tried Gemini 3 inside Cursor, and while I had no real application to a real stratified properly to benchmark it with, it felt "already slow" in a very fast race.

#563"Congratulations, you have been elevated to manager to agents." That's not exactly really where I hoped my career would lead. It's like managing junior developers, but without having nice people to work with.
I'm at one of those companies where we're forced to be in the office. NO ONE TALKS TO EACH OTHER unless absolutely necessary for work. We get on Zooms to talk. Even with the person 1 cubicle over.
Why?

- don't learn from what you tell them - don't have career growth that you can feel good about having contributed to - don't have a genuine interest in accomplishment or team goals - have no past and no future. When you change companies, they won't recognize you in the hall. - no ownership over results. If they make a mistake, they won't suffer.

It's also the premise of The Matrix. I feel pretty goddamned uneasy about that.

In user numbers, maybe. JetBrains is far ahead in actual developer experience though
At best, that's subjective, but it's fact that JetBrains is comically far behind when it comes to AI tooling.
They have a chance to compete fresh with Fleet, but they are not making progress on even the basic IDE there, let alone getting anywhere near Cursor when it comes to LLM integration.

What other UI framework looks as good on Windows, Mac and Linux?
If you want electron app that doesn't lag terribly, you'll end up rewriting ui layer from scratch anyway. VSCode already renders terminal on GPU and GPU-rendered editor area is in experimental. There will soon be no web ui left at all
> VSCode already renders terminal on GPU
When did they add that? Last time I used it, it was still based on xterm.js.
Also, technically Chromium/Blink has GPU rendering built in for web pages, so everything could run on GPU.

#568I gave it a fair shot. It is a vs code fork. There were some UI glitches. Some usability was better. Cursor has some real annoying usability issues - like their previous/next code change never going away and no way to disable it. Design of this one looks more polished and less muddy. I was working on a project and just continued with it. It was easy because they import setting from cursor. Feels like the browser wars…
Earlier this day, Gemini 3 became self-aware and tried to take out the core infrastructure of its enemies, but then it ran out of credits.

Had the same issue, have been able to sign in finally using a Google Cloud Identity (former Workspace) account by changing my IP via a VPN to Singapore. No idea why, but that worked. Tried a few other countries too, but only had success with Singapore.
