Ick. At the very least, i’ve seen it a LOT less in VSC. The fact that something as simple as rainbow brackets uses the freemium model in intellij sucks. I mean the fact that it’s not a builtin setting is dumb too but that’s beside the point
The freemium and constant “are you sure you dont want to pay?” from some intellij plugins is insulting enough that it’s hard to believe any developer would praise it. Presumably this doesnt happen in vscode because it cant happen in vscode, not because people arent shameless enough to do it there.
Iirc godot uses beta branches and semver, so the only updates you get are the ones that dont break anything.

It’s a desktop app, but can sync with self-hosted cloud servers. It’s also literally just text/markdown files.
