I tried using VS Code instead of Obsidian for taking notes, and it's surprisingly decent

I've been on the Obsidian train for quite a while now, and it's been an excellent way to take quick, structured notes that I can sync across all of my devices. Combined with Blinko, both have enabled me to have a level of organization that I could only dream of in the past. However, as a developer, I recognize that at its core, Obsidian is just a Markdown editor with a bunch of fancy features and a nice UI on top. That's why I wanted to give VS Code a try for note-taking, and it's surprisingly decent.
