Does anyone have any good experiences with copilot? I have never heard anyone say anything good about it.

Copilot was fantastic, it's usage was insane because it was by request not tokens for the longest time. You could make a long markdown file with lots of planned edits, and just let it rip.

It also had some really good models for basically free while it was in preview instead of being tied to a single provider.

And finally, it's vscode integration was really good. I use codex now, and changes to a thread are in this awful diff view that shows all changes in a single tab. And even that wasn't working for a while there. No clue if cursor is better never tried it because it takes a lot for me to swtich tools because of all the small things like shorcuts and configurations that I've set over a long time.

i think OP is talking about MS365 copilot, not github copilot

someone else mentioned how their blood pressure spikes from using microsoft products...

The sheer anger that I feel over how fuckingly stupid it is that they named everything copilot that basic conversation is difficult... I tried going to the article and got swarmed by paywall, finally checked the archive link and I think you're right.
