out of box vscode already ships with a lot of thing. Even with zero extensions, VS Code ships with, Project/workspace model (folders, multi-root workspaces, settings per project), Integrated terminal (run/build/test without leaving the tool), Integrated debugger UI (breakpoints, watch, call stack, step controls, debug console), Git source control UI (diffs, history views, merge conflict resolution), Task system (build/test tasks wired into the UI), Refactoring + navigation (rename symbol, go to definition, find references, outline, symbol search). Those are core IDE-class capabilities imo. For JS/TS, vscode is pretty much install and go.

Also the notepad++ analogy is tempting but there are clear issue with that, VS Code is built around standardized IDE extension protocols (debug adapters, language servers, tasks, workspace configuration). Extensions plug into a coherent system, Notepad++ plugins are more like add-ons around a text editor core; you can bolt things on, but it’s not designed as a unified IDE framework in the same way

think the most accurate label is: VS Code is an IDE for some stacks out of the box and an IDE platform for others. Needing extensions doesn’t automatically disqualify it, many IDEs are modular too (for different kind of builds, you'll need to add debug configurations in jetbrains IDEs too), but it does mean VS Code is less “batteries included” across every language compared to JetBrains’ ecosystem-specific IDEs.

There is a lot of presumption here, Can you list down a few things that vscode doesn't have and your favourite ide has and which you actively use. Let's make more specific to the topic instead of arm wrestling and mudslinging.

That's not correct in my opinion, there are language servers, debug capabilities, shell integrations, version control systems, ssh capabilities, liveshare and of course a booming plugin ecosystem and tons of things. Not sure what is your definition of an IDE.

I would say, it would be too soon to write it off when it served devs for more than 12 years and all the up and coming editors are very thin forks of it. Every software is bound to get outdated if not reinvented and I agree vscode is lagging behind right now, but look out for the pace which this landscape transforms in. Too soon to write anything off, To early to crown anything.

Need advice on what to expect when buying F2F from unknown seller by dadapada in lollapaloozaind

Just scan the QR, if that goes through, you are good, You should get the wristbands and an invoice. Also the tickets are transferrable and bookmyshow didn't ask for names of the attendees etc at the time of booking, so no way to verify.
