I switched because my workplace has licenses for VSPro, and IT doesn't want us grabbing our own stuff off the internet.
What a disappointment! it's worse, and harder to use in almost every way. For the record I'm coding in Python and just need git integration and a debugger.
It's such a step back in design language and usability. Love to ignore free software in favor of its expensive "professional" counterpart 
I'm not a professional coder by any means but even just going from writing up short programs in notepad++ to VS feels disgusting. And I'm talking about all versions and all years. The things you people do for breakpoints is downright degrading. Just the names you have to remember for "folder".
No idea what language you're talking about here but writing any sort of C# program without an IDE? I'd rather get a tooth extraction without anesthesia.
