I personally find it hard to trust vs code due to Microsoft. For example, they snuck telemetry in their last windows 7 “security” update. I realize the community could fork it if they did so, but it’s still a bit weird. Maybe it’s just me



I agree and can understand, and indeed you can find vscodium which is a vscode version stripped down of all telemetry and information gathering tools present in vscode.

You now trust a random developer instead of MS not to do anything unwanted. Doesn't sound like it's solving anything.


Nice, it's in homebrew too.
