Edit over SSH.

Hi, all. In Emacs, it's trivially easy to open a file on a remote host:
emacs /user at host:/path/to/file
And while I *do* enjoy Emacs, I admit that some of the other IDE/editors
I've seen look kind of nifty. But opening files via SSH is really,
really handy -- to the point where I consider it a dealbreaker to not
have it. I found Visual Code can do SSH, but you have to (at least, by
my reading) set up per-host profiles, etc. Bleh. I know that vim can
do it, but I'm just not a vim guy. I'm just not interested in doing
some out-of-the-box thing like sshmount (or whatever it is). So, at the
end of the day, anyone have an editor they enjoy where it's as easy to
open a file over SSH as it is in Emacs?
Thanks for any thoughts you might have...
