A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

Not much to gain except more privacy and fully open source. A downside is there are less extensions available since it gets extensions from Open VSX Registry. Also there are extensions out there that are not good for privacy.
I still think VSCodium is worth it however.
You can use the official extension repo with vscodium. You just have to edit the editors file accordingly. I dont have the link right now, but it should be easy to find.
I was not aware of this.
