Webstorm or VS Code for JS/ React/ Express?

Good day. Recently I wondered if Webstorm would give any advantages over VS Code, should I switch? Does the JetBrains product have killer features?
In favor of VS Code, the ease and speed of the editor itself, besides, I have been working in it for more than a year, there is a well-tuned working environment with a bunch of convenient plugins + I can write them myself + accumulated snippets
About Webstorm, I only realized that it is a little more helps with autocomplete/bug tracking. On the downside, it's heavy on Mac OS, slower, and you still have to pay. Is it worth it?

Please write about your experience with this development environment! What you like, what you don't. Thank you!

JetBrains products have the coolest code analyzer, so everything is always better with it. VS Code is great, but only for lightweight work.

heavy on Mac OS

unless the poppy is antediluvian and weak, otherwise everything flies fine. Any JB product I have without brakes in several projects can work in parallel.
These products help a lot in code cleanliness and speed of work, and there are also a lot of recommendations and notifications not only "where it's bad", but also "why" and "how to fix it"

in VScode there is no git annotations for the entire file like in webstorm, there is an Annotator plugin, but it opens annotations in a new file, and not like in webstorm to the left of the file, there is Blame in GitLength, but I can’t click on a commit and see what changes there in VScode it was
impossible to assign a hotkey to shift + shift, in webstorm I open the file search using it with 1 hand (in VScode I have to reach cmd + P with my right hand)
