I get that it's open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting

I actually mentioned vscodium in my post but at the end of the day it's still a Microsoft product and the extensions still have telemetry from what I hear

Wait. If I remember correctly they use a separate extension store for vscodium. If you want the default microsoft one you have to set that up manually. You're dismissing it outright, but vscodium is actually a valid alternative without any telemetry.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
