Just toggle the telemetry setting. That’s all

Sure. But functionally wise it’s the exact same software after you toggle said setting. I like FOSS but in this case it has zero benefit.

Alternatively you can deactivate all tracking in VSCode and therefore make it exactly the same as VSCodium afaik. Only takes a few seconds.

VSCodium uses another marketplace. A lot of addons are either on an older version or not even available. Tried it once but moved back to VSCode after a few minutes. I prefer my addons.

Well not exactly the same. I’m not sure anymore but I think it misses the possibility to sync settings via Microsoft account and possibly via GitHub account as well since it belongs to MS but I’m not sure.

Another reason why .com, .org or .(European country) is better. Especially .org or .online or .world are perfect for lemmy instances. Why use a domain from an African country?

Außerdem sind es ja keine Steuergelder, sondern Unternehmensgelder. Wenn diese zumindest 12€ pro Stunde überweisen, kann der Insasse auch davon seine Haft teilweise, Unterhalt, Elektronik etc. bezahlen.
