Interesting thoughts here. Not a corporate but a freelance developer myself, though. I'm developing on Atom at the moment. I love VSCode too, but I'm using a great FTP extension (Remote FTP) in Atom that is essential to me, I just discovered that Remote FS can do quite the same in VSCode. I am doing Full Stack with PHP, so I also use extensions for CSS (colors), a rest-client, some symbol navigator, wakatime.
At the moment I'm using Windows 10 (and a MacOS machine that I'm not using much but useful for some Flutter work). And do all the storage in my hosting itself, I create/modify the code files via the FTP extension, then eventually I git over to github. Then I distribute to the customer hosting as needed (DEV-QA/PROD cycle roughly).
I'm meaning to eventually move to Linux, completely or partially; I just built me a DIY computer for Windows 10 and now it really flies (i5 9400, 16gb ram), and the older NUC I5 is an opportunity for a Linux flavor, still haven't settled on one, but I'd surely go the Debian/Ubuntu way.
That sounds pretty good too! I used to do something similar but I like the I like the VS Code remote extension better.
I also do PHP development and now I only have to install PHP on my development server (not on my local machine) and all of my IDE features (linting/debugging/etc.) all work through the Remote Development extension.
But what you are doing covers the many of the benefits that I enjoy.
I’ve be really enjoying Elementary OS (Ubuntu based). :)
