Debian at home, Rocky Linux at work
VSCodium or Godot depending on what I'm working on.
Whatever language support via LSP is available for VSCodium, Prettier, I'll have to check the rest. Nothing that drastically changes the experience. Basically whatever does auto formatting, code completion(without using "AI"), and error highlighting.
Are your projects in c#/dotnet?
Mostly python, shell, and GDscript these days.
I did C#/.NET stuff for a few years for $dayjob, but that was all on windows with visual studio
I see, do you think C#/dotnet is still going to be relevant? It seems like they keep getting better behind the scene and have matured to be more than just windows java. I have fallen off programming and am looking to give myself a project to get back. I was thinking of learning dotnet and using avelonia to make some guis.
I think C#/dotnet will be relevant on windows for a long time. Personally I'm done with that platform though. Dotnet being free and open source software is great though. There are some fantastic cross platform projects out there written in it, such as Jellyfin.
One reason why I am taking some interest, I primarily use Linux. Tho it does seem like its mostly MS that pays for the development and I do wonder if they might pull the plug and just focus on Windows. I wouldn't want to start a project I can't continue or focus on developing skills that are get tied back to a proprietary platform or something.
