All the best software is botnet

I don't use any of those for hobby/monkey work though.

How is Visual Studio botnet?

>>62305590
I could live without them, but why the fuck Visual Studio Code, who even uses this?

For me there is nothing better for front-end web development. It has less features than WebStorm but runs better on my PC and is more versitile.

It's just a nice text editor. Not the best, but it's nice.

Even the Community (free*) version requires a phone home after 30 days for (free*) activation.

*free as in beer

You'll, figure out very fast that the expensive Enterprise version is the only legal way around this.

Visual Studio Code is botnet by default, but you can disable the analytics

whoa
its almost like analytics are useful in making the software better instead of blindly listening to inbred pajeets demanding shit on issue trackers

Photoshop has analytics?
I'm still using version 7.1
I had no idea.

>>62305808
it does.
Adobe is one of the big free of the ultimate botnet (also Microsoft and Google). Some of the features of Creative Cloud are comfy as fuck, though.

None of those are the best in their field except for Photoshop.

>VS runs better than Jetbrains
Not a chance.

lol, ikr

WebStorm is a full fledged IDE and VS Code is a text editor (it has API for a debugger, though). Of course it runs better.
