What IDE/extensions do you use for open-source LLMs? I tried VSCode with ollama and lm studio, and the experience is very subpar to the built-in copilot. It's not very usable.

No one I know uses the built in VSCode extensions anymore. It's all TUIs now. You can use Opencode as a TUI now for local.
Seconding the TUI usage. Opencode, codex, and pi are ones that I have / my friends have had success with using locally. I mostly use pi. It feels like the most "boring tool that just does its job" out of the big options.
I’ve been using Opencode, but recently migrated to oh-my-pi and have really enjoyed it.
I’ve also had luck with copilot-cli, but find that to be more limiting and it’s only really worth using if you are paying for GitHub Copilot (or your company pays for it, as is my case).
