Still waiting for VSCopium
I thought you had a typo… But then I look it up…
https://github.com/TheHolyTachanka/VsCopium
It’s real… But I think it’s abandoned…
i always mistype codium as copium…
soalias --save copium codium
Come to neovim and spend countless hours tweaking your configs when you should be working 🙃
Crazy that people seem to think you’re serious and that Neovim needs constant tweaking. I built my config nearly 6 months ago and have only edited it to add new keybinds when I think of how something could be faster or easier. Everything else has been pretty stable.
That was exactly my experience with it.
I was using VIM in the old days, so I already had some memories on now to do basic editing.
And then I’ve spent a week trying to make NeoVIM a well adjusted IDE for C, Java, JavaScript and go. I’ve quit after a week, as the results were not satisfactory.
I just installed CoC with a language server, and it works like a charm.
- Install VSCode
- Install all extensions
- Copy extensions folder
- Install Codium
- Move extensions to Codium extensions folder
- Remove VSCode
Does codium handle updates for the extensions?
As long as the same extensions exist in its repositories, yes. VSCodium has its own extension marketplace though, many of the most used can be easily found there.
You can also download the *.vsix file of the desired extension from either Github or Microsoft’s extension marketplace and install it manually by clicking on “Install from VSIX” in the Extensions menu.
This obviously doesn’t solve the update problem and it is also questionable if this is in terms with the “Microsoft Terms of Use” of the extension.
or just use the vscode marketplace in codium…
you can also just use openvsix, which actually contains everything you’ll ever need
This works until you have debug .NET.
vim users: you guys got buttons?
Hey you get to decide between neovim and vim
neovim is not much different really, except you can do configs in lua (much better).
Vim chocked for me when I tried to launch it with
git commit -vwith a massive changeset (~100 files, lots of small changes per file), and neovim was cool with it.So neovim is just a little bit smoother.
I don’t think that’s much of a choice.

I miss when this was vim vs Emacs
Whish side were you on then? The correct side (emacs) or the wrong side (vim)?
Why not both? I’ve used Emacs with evil-mode for several years. I did use Vim before that for longer though.
If you count that as both then I agree. I also use emacs with modal keybinds (not vim-style though)
I just wanted to bring back the flame war a little sijce you were nostalgic about it
NeoVim, VSCodium and Kate are my picks.
Any Jetbrains users here?
Can’t imagine working with java without it
✋ Using Goland daily. Haven’t try out their Fleet much though.
Yes, it seems to have everything I need for Go and Python
I use vscodium for most day to day stuff and vscode for trying out/“sandboxing” specific extensions like github copilot.
emacs vs vim
in linux I use codium and add a symlink from code to codium, that way software that only recognizes code will work with codium (don’t know why godot does it) and it works great, on windows I just couldn’t make it work so I use code because unity only works with code and I have to use Unity for work also, I enabled the vscode store in codium because there are some extensions I need that aren’t on the codium store
You can symlink in Windows as well. It’s called a “junction”
Obvious choice, nano
Obvious choice, NeoVim.
Is there even a difference, asside from the telemetry?
VSCodium has limited plugins, but most known ones were available… Weird logo, some kind of a seaplant?? But I soon dig it…
VSCode has all the plugins, but with Microsoft’s Telemetry as expected… Cool logo…
Truth: I’m using VSCodium, the absence of Telemetry tends to improve it’s overall performance… I’m beginning to like the logo… Plugins support has improved, all the plugins I used in VSCode, are now available… All of it…
You can add the official microsoft marketplace in a json file and get all the addons :)
It’s basically the same difference between Chrome and Chromium.
I love Foss software but chrome crushes browerbench.org speedometer test (on windows not Linux ) like its always 20 runs more than chromium or ungoogled chromium makes me wonder is chrome cheating or what’s happening under the hood
until you open more than 4 tabs. then firefox wins
This is the way. Check out betterfox user.js to make Firefox light speed
The plugins. Aside from that, it’s the same source code
Well, choose neovim and customize it the way you want.
I managed to code 100% in nvim after I realized vscode taking almost 5gb storage for caches and the extensions
No telemetry but also restricted extension stores
This. Getting rid of telemetry is ok, but not being able to use extensions adds too much resistance and can even make the app practically unusable.
Try out helix. It has a lot of sane defaults baked into it, treesitter, LSP support, etc.
