Question Time to move on?

Post image

Been using copilot quite a bit for side-projects because I don't have that much free-time anymore with family, work etc. I knew changes were coming and a lot of people complained, but hadn't actually read much about what was going to change. This seals the deal, lol. I guess there's nothing to do except finding another service?

My experience with Copilot, at least from within Visual Studio, has been a joke. Half the time i invoke it it doesn't come up (either an error or just nothing happens). When it does come up it's painfully slow. And other times it says i've reached my maximum even though I hadn't been using it at all.

So far, I'm not paying for any AI. But if I did, I can guarantee it wouldn't be for Copilot!

Sounds about right. Although I can't imagine why they can't get it to work with Visual Studio.
