i've switched back to vscode... the demicrosofted version codium to be exact, and i'm honestly enjoying using it... still to see how it behaves with interfaces, but really that's probably the go language support plugin's responsibility.

i suspect i'm not gonna be paying jetbrains any further.

to be honest, the changes they were making were starting to really get on my nerves and i've put at least 250 euros in that black hole over the last 6 years or so, i think i'm done.
