Bulma is like 10 years old at this point, it’s been around forever. You’re wrong because there’s no one size fits all: some prefer the design of Bulma, some prefer Bootstrap, some prefer Chakra… The advantage of these frameworks is they com

So what? You can use VSCodium and the OpenVSX marketplace if you like, no one is stopping you. It DOES mean you won’t be able to use some extensions that are published exclusively on the VSCode marketplace but guess what? You’re not entitle

Because it’s about decency. A CEO conducting mass layoffs should be seen as a failure, not as a success worthy of a 63% pay increase. I also wonder how many employees didn’t get a rise this year because "times are tough" or "

I also have an extension that I dual publish. I was surprised to see it’s getting as many downloads on OpenVSX as on the VSCode marketplace. I’m just glad it’s useful to more people for marginally no cost.

Rectangle does much more, but it actually lacks the one feature I need with window snapping: the ability to resize both snapped windows at the same time. The native Sequoia snapping does it. I only ever use snapping for left/right snap
