I use vscodium, and let me point out a few things before anyone thinks its a drop in replacement :
- the store/marketplace is not the same. Due to licencing vscodium is not allowed to access the microsoft vscode marketplace. However, you can change the url to use the official marketplace
- some extensions ( mostly a few microsoft extensions ) are not allowed to run in vscodium. Think of stuff like the .net debugger
- vscode has build in addons like the .net debugger, razor support, some c++ syntaxing etc, that vscodium does not have and can not have if you want the official addons
Overall i love vscodium, but for work i cant use it sadly.
Now hobby work is all vscodium
Yes, you can do that, and i mentioned it too. Hell, i always have vscodium set up like that haha.
However even then you can come across extensions you are not allowed to be install. Ive come across that error a few times, mostly with microsoft extensions
