What I miss from vscode is the remote functionality, can you do it with emacs? For neovim there is distant.nvim, but idk if it is mature enough and configuration seems a bit annoying...

Emacs already does that with TRAMP via SSH -- You just open a file like /ssh:user@server:/etc/hosts the main downside is if your connection is laggy Emacs will lock up momentarily. There is an ongoing effort to improve the multithreaded-ness and async-ness of Emacs to make it nicer

I use TRAMP to edit code loaded on robots occasionally. One advantage compared to VSCode is that it doesn't require the installation of anything onto the computer you're connecting to, since it uses the usual linux tools to work. But it can freeze up once in a while.

What kind of remote functionality? Lately, somebody mentioned https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/tunnels

There is TRAMP.

I am not sure if it will fit your needs or not.

I believe the analogous thing in emacs is called TRAMP. I have no idea if it's good, as I never edit files remotely, but it exists.
