Does codium handle updates for the extensions?
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.
Nope
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.
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 🙃
Crazy that people seem to think you’re serious and that Neovim needs constant tweaking. I built my config nearly 6 months ago and have only edited it to add new keybinds when I think of how something could be faster or easier. Everything else has been pretty stable.
That was exactly my experience with it.
I was using VIM in the old days, so I already had some memories on now to do basic editing.
And then I’ve spent a week trying to make NeoVIM a well adjusted IDE for C, Java, JavaScript and go. I’ve quit after a week, as the results were not satisfactory.
I just installed CoC with a language server, and it works like a charm.
vim users: you guys got buttons?
No telemetry but also restricted extension stores
This. Getting rid of telemetry is ok, but not being able to use extensions adds too much resistance and can even make the app practically unusable.
I use VSCode with config options to disable telemetry. Probably not perfect but good enough for me, I’m very happy using VSCode
Any Jetbrains users here?
Can’t imagine working with java without it
Love WebStorm.
Sometimes. Depends on how lazy I am
Yes, it seems to have everything I need for Go and Python
✋ Using Goland daily. Haven’t try out their Fleet much though.
Still waiting for VSCopium
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…
i always mistype codium as copium…
soalias --save copium codium
Obvious choice, nano
Obvious choice, NeoVim.
Boo this man!!
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
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
You can symlink in Windows as well. It’s called a “junction”
Well, choose neovim and customize it the way you want.
I managed to code 100% in nvim after I realized vscode taking almost 5gb storage for caches and the extensions
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.
NeoVim, VSCodium and Kate are my picks.
emacs vs vim
I just stick with Geany.
I use vscodium for most day to day stuff and vscode for trying out/“sandboxing” specific extensions like github copilot.
Try out helix. It has a lot of sane defaults baked into it, treesitter, LSP support, etc.
