Which proprietary software do you prefer over their open-source alternatives, and why?

Visual studio code. There’s nothing else that’s anywhere near as good that doesn’t cost money. Those annoying terminal text editors just don’t do it for me. I need code autocomplete and do not understand how there exist people who have the patience to get by without it. I do not have the time to be switching tabs 20 times a second because I can’t remember function parameter overloads. That intellisense autocomplete is just too good.

VSCodium exists. Not sure whether it has intellisense by default but might be worth a try. It is open source and without all the Microsoft telemetry
