This is why I've been using Spacemacs as my primary editor for years now: cross-platform support, automatic language detection, package installation, well-designed key bindings, great documentation, etc. Not to mention significant productivity gains from packages such as magit (it's always fun when people see Git time machine in action--using the n/p keys to move backwards and forwards in time to see every change to a file, along with the commit message).
And it works across all major OSes. Just copy your .spacemacs file to a new laptop, and wait for everything to install itself.
To be fair, I use VS Code pretty regularly as well. But more of a nicer alternative to TextEdit/Gedit/etc. to capture notes as I work in Spacemacs (of course, there's also the helpful scratch buffer).
