Everyone I know in Europe uses either Visual Studio or vscode.
Me, a European, using Xcode and Eclipse ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah, used to do a lot of the latter for server-side stuff and Android and of the former for iOS, but in the last couple of years been doing game programming so that's VSCode because it's C# with Unity.
Way back when I started doing it professionally it was Emacs, vi and even notepad depending on what I was doing.
They're just tools and only worth it to hyperspecialize in them if you only do one thing your whole career.
It massivelly depends on whether it's for programming or something else (such as sys admin work) and which language (and even for which framework) if the former.
If you're doing, say, Java programming for server side or Android, VS and VSCode are far from good choices, but they're perfect if you're doing C# .Net stuff.
However if you're doing sys admin work (including the programming part of it) you're probably better of mastering vim or Emacs (if only because at times in some systems it's all you have).
Depends heavily on the market segment. I also work in Europe and in my 15 years as a software developer (the first 6-7 as C/C++ developer) I've never seen anyone use Visual Studio.
