Vs code fits the bill as a good cross platform .NET IDE. It is also a really good Standalone text editor.
It's a great text editor, yes. An IDE though, it is not. It gets close with various addons, but it's still not the same experience.
VS Code honestly kind of sucks for it, there's just so many small things missing or lacking.
Check out Rider, I was honestly surprised and switched over to it after 8 years of visual studio.
Rider is awesome - totally understated even if JetBrains does have a big fan base. If you'll notice, most non-MS video bloggers use it, and for good reason.
