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 
That really sucks, I hate having to use overengineered garbage. Any half decent text editor, Git and GDB have already fixed 99.5% of our problems, having a bloated IDE that tries to do some of the remaining 0.05% but the core functionality becomes so much harder to access is a huge bummer.
