VSCode is open source though? Although I guess maybe not the plugins?
It's similar to chrome. Chrome is not open source, its base project chromium is. The VSCode distributable has closed source stuff on top which is mostly telemetry. There's a purely open source build of VSCode called vscodium.
I use the proprietary version for the remote tools and settings sync.
I can work from home on my windows PC with no loss of productivity compared to my Linux workstation.
And the ability to open any GitHub repo in the browser based Code just by pressing . is a game changer.
