It should be VIM

No one comes back from VIM.

Those who say they have are dirty liars... or have it paused in the background.

    ... because official vscode binaries are proprietary, released under EULA and include tracking components

    official vscode(oss) binaries still have tracking, they're not properly configured and come without any marketplace. (arch ships a config file with openvsix though)

    vscodium comes without tracking and pre-configured with openvsix marketplace, and also provides it's own branding.

    There's the base vs code source code, which microsoft takes, adds a bunch of tracking, compiles it, and distributes that binary. If you compiled vs code yourself from source, you would not get the same executable.

    A bit like chrome, because i'm pretty sure chrome isn't open source, chromium is. Could be wrong on that.
