  Not for the extension developer though. Good thing it was not monetized.

    Well, he no longer has to maintain it, and an even better version of the feature now exists

    Igelau linked to this thread: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/128465#issuecomment-900311495 https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/128465#issuecomme... In it, CoenraadS (the extension developer) writes "I follow this thread with interest, my extension is something that grew a bit out of control, and I grew tired of maintaining it." and "If it could that would be great, and my extension could be deprecated completely." There was also discussion with the author about updating the extension to prompt users to switch to the native functionality, and it appears CoenraadS was also involved in the process/design of implementing the feature in VS code. This appears to be a shining example of doing it right, and giving the original extension author credit.
