Hey, to clarify it's about the user experience of IDEs - how it feels to jump from one to the other, how the UI prompts you to add more credits (so you can end up spending a lot if you're not careful with prompts).

This has often drawn similarities to a slot machine, the way it is not deterministic what code will come out, and what changes to which files will be made.

and they prompt you to add more credits, it's seamless to spend more - slot machine is referring to the experience using it, not what is happening technically

Do these forks keep updating with the new versions of VS Code? I wonder if once they're forked, they are stuck with that version they forked from?

On the other hand, I think MS are pretty much cloning the good stuff from Cursor, like agent mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dutyOc_cAEU

Leaves me thinking VS Code might be the best in the long long run, but for now they're all kinda similar?

Were you using Copilot? I haven't tried VS Code for a while, I guess I can have that one open too. You can even have Windsurf inside VS Code with the plugin I think..

Maybe Cursor/Windsurf could've just been plugins? Only Zed.ai seems really different of the popular IDEs
