You can change the extension repository to the official one.

I don't need it tho, I only need Pyright, Python and the catppuccin theme

Some MS addons still don't work if you do that, last time I tried

The most unfortunate of which for me is remote development. So convenient, nothing compares :(

That's weird, AFAIk VSCodium only strips telemetry and changes branding. It shouldn't actively break addon.

Unless they check if they're running inside of the actual MS VSCode, which could explain why they aren't working

IIRC VSCode contains some proprietary, closed source binaries and VSCodium does not. So maybe the MS addons need those binaries

You can get e.g. pylance to work if you trick it:

So, at least in that instance, it's just Microsoft being a little petty.
