It’s sad that you prioritize “velocity” over user experience.
Imo velocity and user experience aren't mutually exclusive, as a developer I can respond to user requests way faster with web technologies.
As a consumer vscode is a perfect example of why the ecosystem has value, are there other products that fill the same roles? Absolutely, but if you were around for the transition from bloodshed, codeblocks, eclipse and the like to sublime and vscode and other more modern editors you should remember how gamechanging the positive feedback loop of velocity achieved for the dev community in the form of user experience.
VSCode being essentially a text editor is a perfect example of software that should not use 1GB+ of RAM
I suspect most of the resource usage is LSP plugins, so equivalently configured neovim should be about the same, really. If you use VSCode as a plain text editor, it does not use that much RAM.
