VScode is the epitome of the EEE strategy. The core product is open-source, but it’s filled to the brim with tracking and the official extensions have DRM. Yes, there’s DRM on your python LSP.
Anyone who gives a shit should look for alternatives right away. The problem is just that there aren’t any that are as easy to set up.
Because the hate is based on their shitty OS. They did a fairly good job with VSCode. Our hate isn’t blind.

I think, I should switch to Codium for personal projects. Let’s hope there is a binary package on Gentoo.
I mean, you probably already have electron compiled, no?
No, I don’t. I saw it on Flathub; will install it from there.
Shouldn’t using VSCodium solve the telemetry problem?
Aren’t there FOSS linters which work for VSCodium?
And what would that DRM do?
Make sure that the addons can only be used by VScode. There’s vscodium for now, but microsoft could easily shut that down.
Thank god I do not use python.
