Yeah, I'm fine with giving up something I never used.

And, from what I've read many of the people who use it for work only do so to appease their idiot bosses.

it’d be annoying for like 2 sec giving up better auto complete when i’m writing code (keywords: when IM writing code), or “intuitively find and replace non-identical things based on what i just did”

and then id get over it because i could buy RAM again

"intuitively find and replace non-identical things based on what i just did”

We had that 5 years ago with GitHub Copilot, and things have only gone downhill from there...

I am pretty much forced to use AI at work, and I still come home and write code by hand because I enjoy it. A good language server is much more helpful than the LLM autocomplete if you already know what you're trying to write.
