Does codium handle updates for the extensions?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

As long as the same extensions exist in its repositories, yes. VSCodium has its own extension marketplace though, many of the most used can be easily found there.

This works until you have debug .NET.

You can also download the *.vsix file of the desired extension from either Github or Microsoft's extension marketplace and install it manually by clicking on "Install from VSIX" in the Extensions menu.

This obviously doesn't solve the update problem and it is also questionable if this is in terms with the "Microsoft Terms of Use" of the extension.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

or just use the vscode marketplace in codium....

you can also just use openvsix, which actually contains everything you'll ever need

Come to neovim and spend countless hours tweaking your configs when you should be working 🙃

vim users: you guys got buttons?

Hey you get to decide between neovim and vim

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I don’t think that’s much of a choice.

neovim is not much different really, except you can do configs in lua (much better).

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Vim chocked for me when I tried to launch it with git commit -v with a massive changeset (~100 files, lots of small changes per file), and neovim was cool with it.

So neovim is just a little bit smoother.

Can’t imagine working with java without it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

RubyMine, vscode is lacking for Ruby development unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Have a work and personal license. Pretty doable after a few years the full package is only like 170 euros a year.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, it seems to have everything I need for Go and Python

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Love WebStorm.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Sometimes. Depends on how lazy I am

No telemetry but also restricted extension stores

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Still waiting for VSCopium

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I thought you had a typo.. But then I look it up...

https://github.com/TheHolyTachanka/VsCopium

It's real.. But I think it's abandoned..

in linux I use codium and add a symlink from code to codium, that way software that only recognizes code will work with codium (don't know why godot does it) and it works great, on windows I just couldn't make it work so I use code because unity only works with code and I have to use Unity for work also, I enabled the vscode store in codium because there are some extensions I need that aren't on the codium store

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

You can symlink in Windows as well. It's called a "junction"

Obvious choice, NeoVim.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Boo this man!!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

When I go to save files in nano I'm always afraid I'm gonna break something more, if I'm not using vim its probably not an everyday sort of broken Linux situation :P

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

You can install most of the extension that aren't included straight up in the Extensions tab, it's just a little inconvenient. And yes I'm using Codium.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is there even a difference, asside from the telemetry?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (3 children)

VSCodium has limited plugins, but most known ones were available.. Weird logo, some kind of a seaplant?? But I soon dig it..

VSCode has all the plugins, but with Microsoft's Telemetry as expected.. Cool logo..

Truth: I'm using VSCodium, the absence of Telemetry tends to improve it's overall performance.. I'm beginning to like the logo.. Plugins support has improved, all the plugins I used in VSCode, are now available.. All of it..

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's basically the same difference between Chrome and Chromium.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I love Foss software but chrome crushes browerbench.org speedometer test (on windows not Linux ) like its always 20 runs more than chromium or ungoogled chromium makes me wonder is chrome cheating or what's happening under the hood

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

until you open more than 4 tabs. then firefox wins

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This is the way. Check out betterfox user.js to make Firefox light speed

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You can add the official microsoft marketplace in a json file and get all the addons :)

The plugins. Aside from that, it's the same source code

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Well, choose neovim and customize it the way you want.

This is what I get for daily driving win11 and thinking “wow wsl2 is pretty cool”

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

NeoVim, VSCodium and Kate are my picks.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I use vscodium for most day to day stuff and vscode for trying out/"sandboxing" specific extensions like github copilot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I just stick with Geany.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

emacs vs vim
