> A few years ago VsCode was marketed essentially as "Visual studio for beginners", where you were supposed to move to Visual Studio after you became a real dev,

When was that?

I wont likely find the video but I remember watching the PM for both VSCode and VS (at the time was the same one, not sure now) recommending people to move to Visual Studio "eventually". I clearly remember it because it didn't make any sense, even if the names were similar there were/are nothing alike UI-wise and supported-language-wise. I said few years ago but it was prob around 8 years ago, vsc was still pretty young.

Yeah I’ve been using it since it was released and can’t ever remember it being marketed as such.

Yeah I only really saw vscode as a "let's capture atom and sublime users, bevause they will not use Visual Studio anyway" approach.
