Looks like there are some Microsoft fan boys here...
For the others, that does not know the concept that was applied by them numerous times, it's easy:
- embrace: they buy GitHub, play nice, be part of the community, we will change nothing, commit to open source spirit
- extend [current step]: oh, we are just adding nice features, now you will use our visual studio, but don't worry, it's for free, it just improve your experience.
- extinguish [next step, my guess]:
* "sadly, VS works better in edge and does not support minor browsers like Firefox",
* there are these cool new synchronization features/real time collaboration that requires Visual Studio on your computer.
* Sorry, you need an official VS build to use the features because security/authentication/...
* Here are the corporate workspace accounts that allows to limit code edition in the cloud, for security. And so, for security also, you can only use it from edge on windows X with TPM.
Based on previous MS experiences, the possibility are endless!
I would kindly remind that the version of VisualStudioCode that almost everyone use is just a freeware but it can't be built as is from ope source code.
Also, not long so long ago they were willing to switch everyone GitHub accounts with Microsoft accounts...
