Uggh. I pretty much never use Chrome on my Mac, but when I borrow someone else's computer and want to quit Chrome I always get bit by this one! No other application have I seen that makes you hold down ⌘Q to quit, except for Chrome. This is not conventional on Mac apps! It's probably configurable but why make it the default?

Because nobody would know it even existed if it wasn't the default and it's a great feature!

You can hack it in VSCode by turning on the warn-before-terminal-closed feature, and making the terminal always load.

Only drawback (maybe) is that every open project in VSCode warns when trying to close the entire app.
