From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I feel very strange hating Windows, so I use Linux, but loving VS Code, so I use that on Linux. I feel like a hypocrite or something.
But the integration with platformio, github copilot, and all the plugins and customization are just too nice. It's a one-stop shop for everything dev-related. It's the only thing I need to run when programming along with a web browser for research.
Use VScodium
I know VScodium doesn’t have the telemetry but is it lacking features regarding account login and extensions?
Some extensions don’t work but many do, you just have to download the extension files from the marketplace website and tell VCCodium to install the extensions from those files.
Yes and no:
https://open-vsx.org/
I use code-oss provided by the arch repos and it seems to automatically hook into thia. There is probably some way to add that to vscodium.
You can configure it to use MS' extensions marketplace.
If there's a way to get SSH working to edit files on other machines, I couldn't find it.
