On MacOS, apps like VSCode have to ask permission to read directories if they weren't opened via the OS file picker. So my text editor can not read my Google Drive folder unless I explicitly allow it to.
- stickfigure 2y agoI don't know about VSCode, but IntelliJ and Sublime have access to files all over the filesystem (on MacOS). Maybe they once asked me for permissions "to all files" a zillion years ago - I don't remember - but isn't that exactly what the app developer in the article is asking for?
