I program mainly in Go, Python, TypeScript and some C/C++. A year ago I would have agreed with you, but one extension for each language now gives you almost everything you need. I bounce back to Goland, Webstorm, CLion and PyCharm occasionally as they have much more reliable refactoring, and have some really nice features missing from VS Code, but being a Polyglot VS Code makes it so much easier to use similar keybindings and processes across languages, I don't have to fight the IDE to get it to do what I want. Both great tools but my daily driver became VS Code a few months ago, it's pulled ahead in my opinion despite being free.
