    While I always remove the minimaps, may I ask someone more experienced than me why minimaps are even a thing in VSCode? What am I supposed to see? 1 pixel tall gibberish?

      A more detailed version of the dots in the scrollbar.

      It’s quite useful files that are thousands of lines long.

      Why that log? Because it’s 15+ year old code.

      In vscode you can see git changes, errors, search matches. Personally I couldn’t live without it. Great to pickup from where you started and code reviews/git diffs.
