My company pushes us to use copilot and I end up going back to chatgpt (I use them mainly as glorified search engines, error code debuggers and coding assistants). Copilot constantly has availability issues. Sort of tough to use a site that isn't available.
I never got an issue with copilot, at least in Visual Studio (only one I use).
Make repetitive tasks like unit test a breeze. And very useful for debugging issues with tools like Entity Framework.
I switched to full Linux on my personal hardware though. I only use Windows for work.
That sounds like GitHub Copilot though.
