Maker of AI 'vibe coding' app Cursor hits $9B valuation
Exactly. From: [0]
> I know it works as intended. Just curios why Microsoft decided to enforce this all of a sudden.
> Did GitHub Copilot just give up on playing fair with Cursor, admitting it's winning?
The game wasn't 'fair' to begin with and it was rigged for Microsoft to win anyway. (Cursor being based on VS Code).
If you're competing against Microsoft, expect them to race you to zero for years and at close to no cost for them.
It is all for Cursor to lose if they continue as they are.

Jetbrains are offering 65% off Rider personal licenses for 65 hours
Compared to what? To visual studio? It's bad. To rider? It's bad.
To using a potato? It's pretty good!
Seriously though, if you want an honest answer: It's bad... but, they're now investing in making it better (1), and it better than I was a year ago.
Expect to see more improvements in this space.
..but like, yeah. Right now, it kind of still sucks if you're working in C# full time, compared to the serious alternatives. You can see common themes on the issue tracker (2), if you want a less anecdotal response, or perhaps dig through a couple of the juicy threads (3), that give you sense of the state of play right now.
tldr; watch this space; if you're already heavily invested vscode, give it a whirl... but, if you're using a mostly-c# code base, you probably won't want to have it as your primary editor right now.
