I‘m a .NET developer since 2004 but don’t use Windows and VS anymore since five years or so.

I‘m using F# for some parts of a larger mobile app with Xamarin, and therefore have all three IDEs in use: VS for Mac, Rider, VS Code with Ionide. The ladder feels most lightweight for F# only. In a mixed solution with C# Rider probably provides the best experience at the moment. VS for Mac is not very usable, to put it friendly.

However, tooling is evolving but compared to other platforms not very mature yet. Refactoring for example feels like what most editors support for JavaScript.

But it’s not a show-stopper (for me).
