I don’t use vscode, I was just explaining that my requirements for using an open source product for my personal uses are independent of who wrote the code. I’m never going to say “I won’t use X source code just because Y wrote it”, that’s just silly. If I have the code, and it does what I would want it to do if I wrote it myself, and it doesn’t do anything I don’t want it to do, then I don’t care where it came from.
Yes, and I was adding that it is not enough for the product to be open source if the ecosystem surrounding it (e.g. extensions) still drives you to use proprietary software

Lately I’ve been using Neovim.

You’re right, it’s not open source if it’s not open source. Good point.
