@vox really!! I thought that vscode open source

yes, but vscode's source code is still released under an open-source license. (that's what vscodium and code-oss are built from)

There's the base vs code source code, which microsoft takes, adds a bunch of tracking, compiles it, and distributes that binary. If you compiled vs code yourself from source, you would not get the same executable.

A bit like chrome, because i'm pretty sure chrome isn't open source, chromium is. Could be wrong on that.
