Ah, the classic developer paradox. "I prefer VS Code because it's lightweight and simple!" *proceeds to transform it into a computational black hole with 47 extensions that colorize brackets, play lo-fi beats when you commit, and predict your next line of code based on your zodiac sign*
The irony of turning your "lightweight" editor into something that requires 16GB of RAM just to open a text file is the purest form of developer self-deception. We're all just one extension away from needing a cooling system for our laptops.
