To me it's the opposite. I ditched Jetbrains products and moved to VS Code. Never looked back. I code Angular, Golang, Java/Spring and occasionally Python. Much satisfied with VS Code.
I find VS code's keyboard short cuts and editing capabilities more powerful and easier to use and I'm far more productive in it. With its workspace settings.json and extensions.json it is easier to setup a workflow and automation that'll provide a consistent experience to everybody in the team. It's pity that you didn't discover it's capabilities and simplicity. With that comes a lot of power.
Even if my company pays for Jetbrains license I would happily pick VS code. To each his own. Well.
Exactly, not here to convince anyone, I would urge people to use whatever works best for them.
VSC did just that for me, for a very long time.
It's mainly my need for testing and debugging these days that made me favor WebStorm else I probably wouldn't have switched.
Not sure what the difficulty is in testing in vs vode. Jasmine, karma, Cypress, protractor work just fine. It lays out inline code hints with which you can kick off any or all or a set of tests in run or debug mode.

What was your main point to switch?

No difficulty, but WS has a cool way of doing individual tests inside a file, don't think i've seen that in VSC (or i'm not aware of it)
Again, not here to say VSC is bad at it, for my use-cases (singular test in a case) it works better in WS.
