Copilot in vs code is kind of lackluster and really missing the sort of polish you’d expect from a company like Microsoft

Not sure what polish you're looking for but it's been great for me. Smart autocomplete algorithm and good chatbot that acts like a personalized Google / stack overflow. It's not good enough to vibe code full products or debug hard issues, but that's just limitations of AI.

Also it's all Microsoft, they made both the AI and the editor. I appreciate that they don't do anything extra in the editor to favor their own extensions.

Even after agent mode was added? My experience with it has been great, haven't tried gemini CLI or cline yet but I don't think they are going to be much better

My repeated experience with agent mode in vscode is that it constantly claims to have made changes that it never made, and no amount of prompting and reminding and nagging seems to fix it.

USED to expect from Microsoft.

Have you even used any of their products lately? Where "lately" = the last 15 years...

Now I expect out-right malicious corruption.
