So, a question for you, how often do you open vscode from the terminal?

Not as much since I started using Project Manager vscode extension.

When I use VS Code (10-20% of the time), I hit a keyboard shortcut to launch VS Code, then hit another keyboard shortcut to launch Project Manager, fuzzy search any project on my system, and hit enter to open in new vscode instance.

As a terminal user predominantly, I have the same workflow using tmux + fzf: shortcut to launch the terminal, then shortcut to launch fzf to fuzzy search any project on my system, and hit enter to open in a split tmux pane or new tmux window.
