There be 🐇🐰(lemmy.world)

official vscode(oss) binaries still have tracking, they’re not properly configured and come without any marketplace. (arch ships a config file with openvsix though)

vscodium comes without tracking and pre-configured with openvsix marketplace, and also provides it’s own branding.

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.

2. Be civil

Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
Leave remarks of “peasantry” to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
Bigotry will not be tolerated.
These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.

3. Post Linux-related content

Including Unix and BSD.
Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.

4. No recent reposts

Everybody uses Arch btw, can’t quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
