I get that it's open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting

    Live share, remoting (running over ssh or other) and settings sync are both absent from codium, they're the ones I know of

        You can obviously SSH from the terminal but unless you use some external solution you can't open folders on remote machines in the ide

        I don't think so, it runs a client and a server version of VS code so all extensions, settings, debug config etc work on the target machine as if native.

        Seems like a core feature a plugin wouldn't be able to implement properly

        Obviously you can run ssh in the terminal or you could network mount the filesystem somehow but it'll be way jankier

          The moment remote development works with vscodium, I'm going to switch. For now, the FOSS alternative is running code-server on the remote machine, then do ssh port forwarding (or access it via tailscale/zerotier) to access it from a remote machine.
