I actually respect the move. It’s not subtle, and it’s not trying to please everyone.
You may agree or not with the direction, but at least it’s clearly stated.
I appreciate the clarity, anyway. I will wait and see how intrusive the AI focus turns out to be.
If it turns out to be very intrusive, I guess I'll use Clion for my platformio stuff:

and neovim or zed for my blog. That's really all I was using VS Code for anyway.
It’s honest. Time was when the number of improvements in every release was impressive and sometimes radical improvements.
For at least a couple of years it’s been nothing but AI, I am happy to ignore updates and should probably just turn them off now.
