Weird, I tried it recently and found it actually a bit laggier than VSCode. The rendering is much worse quality too.

Are you using Vim mode or something like that?

I begrudgingly gave up vim mode in vscode a few years ago, because that seemed to make it so much more sluggish.

Yeah it hooks into some blocking event that gets called on every keypress. At least that's how it worked last time I tried it many years ago. Very sluggish.

Fortunately standard editing shortcuts like Ctrl-D, Ctrl-left/right, etc. replace 99% of Vim "magic" and are way easier to remember and use.

		No offense, but if you think ctrl-shortcuts are easier to use you don’t really get the appeal of vim
