Vs code fits the bill as a good cross platform .NET IDE. It is also a really good Standalone text editor.
VS Code honestly kind of sucks for it, there's just so many small things missing or lacking.
Check out Rider, I was honestly surprised and switched over to it after 8 years of visual studio.
Rider is awesome - totally understated even if JetBrains does have a big fan base. If you'll notice, most non-MS video bloggers use it, and for good reason.
It's a great text editor, yes. An IDE though, it is not. It gets close with various addons, but it's still not the same experience.
