And on what the other members are using. I'm a consultant so often the version used depends on the customer company.
As of now, nobody is using VS2019 for any project and I've been moved to embedded Linux developement.

I'm personally finding it slower and way less stable than the previous.
Just had it lock up on me again. Just as I hit Ctrl+Shift+S to save a boatload of changes. Thank goodness for auto-recovery.

Some of my colleagues are suing it and are happy with it.
I'm planning on installing it soon, seeing that MS already seems to have shifted focus away from VS2017 (not that I have issues w 2017).
Mainly waiting for .Net Core 3

The existing vertical document tab extension is uninstallable by default because it doesn't play nicely with increased async behavior in VS2019. There's a way to hack the installer to force it into 2019; but rather than letting telemetry show I did that I'm letting whatever non-opt outable telemetry VS/W10 have to show that I'm actively avoiding 2019 despite having it installed in favor of 2017.
MS has said that they can't fix the extension, and that the right solution is to bring the feature into the main VS code base; with no indication of progress other than saying it's under review, and a 3rd party survey asking what we think is needed most for tab managment.

VS 2019 is faster and more stable at some things while simultaneously being slower and buggier at others.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

It's a massive improvement on VS2015, which was truly dreadful.
It's a slight improvement on VS2017, which was much better than 2015.
It's definitely worth upgrading if you use the new shiny features.
If you're still maintaining .NET 3.5 Winforms/VB.NET solutions, you should keep VS2013 around, which for that platform was the fastest and most stable IDE of them all.
Ever since VS2015, Edit and Continue in VB.NET/.NET 3.5/Winforms has been horribly broken, mostly unusable. MS have been utterly unresponsive.

I have been using it since last 3 months and haven't had any issue. It starts pretty quick now and debugging is also faster.
P.S. I have total 105 projects in the solution.
If you are not criticized, you may not be doing much.

And currently running 2017, then upgrade.

New version awareness tends to come when you first try to find something and it's a case of "Grrrr! Where on earth have they hidden SSIS this time?" or something to that effect. I pay little attention to icons.
I'm on 2017 by the way (had to check). That seems to be okay.

The differences between 2017 and 2019 are there, but they tend to be rather specialised (slightly better support for c++17, and similar highlights)

I decided to do a speed test the other day recording project startup times and also build times for a small web application. I'm getting pushed to migrate around a dozen small to medium sized web applications from .NET 4.0 to .NET 4.6 to take advantage of a new (fairly expensive) suite of widgets we bought last year. I've been dragging my feet as it means leaving my beloved VS 2010 which I've become quite fond of over the decade.  Why would this matter?
Sure, I've tried the newer versions, VS 2015, 2017, and now 2019. None can match the startup and build times of VS 2010.
Startup time in secs: (double-click to usable)
a: 2010 - 6.5
b: 2017 - 24.0
c: 2019 - 15.0
Build time in secs: (F5 after making a change)
a: 2010 - 9.5
b: 2017 - 23.0
c: 2019 - 16.5
It's getting better, but a difference of 6-7 seconds every time I need to debug is tangible. I suppose there is a price for progress.
Another thing that annoys me is how much bloat/cruft comes with using third-party components....add one widget to the project and it adds 3 dozen dlls along with the language packs for de, es, ja, and ru.

VB 6.0 is even faster on my Windows 10 machine.
|
|
|
|
|
ooo! Nice numbers man!
I've noticed that its a good deal faster for my builds than 2017 as well.

I'm currently using VS2017 and planning on using VS2019 once .Net Core 3.0 comes out.

It's been somewhat downhill since VS2008.
Which, by the way, I'll be using in a little while to update something that works fine.

I know you are joking but the bugs had nothing to do with our code, I assure you.

I can't remember the last time I had a bug in Visual Studio, any version. My life is so boring.
