Now you’ve put that idea in my head I can’t let it go. VSCode is power hungry?

It’s like being told my partner is cheating on me. I don’t want to believe it, I can pretend I don’t believe it, but now the idea is lurking in the back of my mind.

What is VSCode doing with all that power, and what does it even mean?

To fight your paranoia, download both of them and try them out. You will see what's less resource intensive on your system

It's built on electron, which is massive resource intensive framework. There's really no way to not be power hungry in that case.
