Because vscode is really good.
Vscode (or vscodium) is open source.
You could say the same about the brave browser, it uses chromium under the hood, which is a open source browser engine maintained by Google, a direct competitor of brave. Not only is chromium part of brave's core business, it is what its core business runs on.
So I don't really see an issue with using vscode OSS in gitlab.
- ghuntley 4y agoEnsure you read https://ghuntley.com/fracture https://ghuntley.com/fracture. If any point of that is wrong then happy to amend but it is what it is. In a couple years time there will be no Microsoft maintained LSPs that non MSFT companies can use. Microsoft are keeping them for themselves. As is their right. So if all these companies come in thinking they can compete with MSFT the answer really is, no they cannot, not without substational amounts of investment and maybe a collab between these companies to recreate all the LSPs that Microsoft is locking down. I would love to see some form of collab…
- ranguna 4y agoSo you are saying vscodium's problem is extensions. I'm sorry, you are gonna have a bad time with pretty much all major text editors, including vim. The biggest issue I've seen was with the python language server, but even that can be replaced with an OSS equivalent. I have copilot installed in vscodium. Remote ssh to vscode works, vscode containers work. Everything is working.
