Ok... after using @rider new functionality code with me, I'm seeing a lot of errors: ctrl+c won't copy, autocomplete won't complete on enter/tab, highlighting stops working after a while. I checked that the keybindinds are still correct. WTF!

The strangest thing with @rider happened after I experimented with the new 'code with me' feature. Ctrl+c (copy) won't work in .cs files. It works fine in .sql, .ts and other files (this includes the commit and search windows). When I press ctlr+c, nothing happens; I keep the previously copied content. I checked that my shortcuts have not been modified.

I have found others with the same issue (or at least similar): https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RIDER-117911/Copying-is-not-working-with-enabled-Code-with-me

@khalidabuhakmeh - What's the state of @rider and debugging #dapr hosted #dotnet applications?

Around two years ago I was on a really small team, just two or three developers, and the other developer decided they wanted us to use Rider. Because I didn't have a preference, I used Rider and rather enjoyed it. However, that developer has since moved teams and now it is just me (for the time being).

So I was considering moving back to Visual Studio or even switching to Visual Studio Code, but I wanted to see some arguments against this.

Here is my list so far, but it's probably out of date since I haven't used Visual Studio in a long time.

Pros of Rider:

  • Much faster than using ReSharper
  • Less sharp interface with a better font
  • I'm used to it at this point
  • I have a Nyan cat loading bar which is kind of fun

Cons of Rider:

  • Enterprise license is expensive (probably)
  • New versions of C# aren't immediately supported
  • Refactorings are becoming less necessary with the rise of AI assistants
  • Don't really like their source control manager

Wanted to hear what other users think. What keeps you using Rider?
