- bitwize 5y agoYeah, VSCodium is just a build of the open-source VSCode base, it just can't connect to Microsoft's extension store because that's reserved for Microsoft's proprietary build. It should have the same APIs. I just wondered if the maintainers would officially support this use case. I'm not a VSCode user, but I do not trust Microsoft to dominate the entire dev tool ecosystem, and a stronger alternative base built around VSCodium would be a good thing.
