We Have to Start Over: From Atom to Zed
It was onivim2. Iirc it was a one-man show, and stopped when funding dried up. I also hoped to see a a lot from it. Maybe the dev took too much work on his plate, with an unproven language with limited libraries?

How VSCode made bracket pair colorization 10,000x faster
It's unfortunate that oni2 stopped development.
It had the promise of all the benefits of VS Code, but performance of a native app.

VSCode-Neovim: Use embedded Neovim in VSCode without emulation
Onivim development has stopped, it is now abandonware: https://github.com/onivim/oni2/issues/3811#issuecomment-9103...

VSCode with Neovim
It's MIT licensed now, so anyone could pick it up and continue work on it, but the original authors have basically stopped working on it. This GitHub issue was the last major news update.

HypeScript: Simplified TypeScript's type system in TypeScript's own type system
I never tried CoffeeScript since nobody pays me for it, though I am curious about ReasonML as an alternative, there's a Neovim front-end[0] coded in Reason that compiles natively[1], and supports existing VS Code plugins from the VSCodium plugin repository[2] which I still have yet to look at how the heck they pulled that bit off, but it is pretty interesting.

Modern VS Code extension development: The basics
The following are some of the most common extension types on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace and Open VSX Registry, an open-source, community-driven extension registry for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) extensions.

HTML snippets in .EX file version 2

MSFT is forcing Outlook and Teams to open links in Edge and IT admins are angry
I didn't know about https://open-vsx.org/. Very nice! But besides those languages, they are also missing things like the remote ssh extension, which is a big deal breaker for me (and I assume many others regardless of language).

Anki Editor - An extension for Visual Studio Code to edit card templates with syntax highlighting and intellisense
Any chance you could publish it to Open VSX as well, for the people not using the Microsoft version?

Help me make VSCode telemetry clearer and require consent by upvoting this issue
no there's lots of extensions available on vscodium, just not the same ones (https://open-vsx.org)

Help Us Sustain Open-vsx.org!
If we do not generate enough interest, we’ll be forced to decommission https://open-vsx.org/ by the end of May, 2023
