raspberrypi-sys-mods VS openvsx

There is a systemd service in Raspberry Pi OS that only runs if that file exists. It enables the SSH service and then removes the file.

Second, adding a third party repo to a "stable" distribution after the fact is a Big Deal. The way they originally did it gave Microsoft the ability to install arbitrary things on your machine. Even though that's been "fixed", now that the foundation has proven itself to be staffed by untrustworthy scumbags, you should be concerned about the Raspberry Pi foundation having the ability to install arbitrary things on your machine.

Doing an "apt show raspberrypi-sys-mods" lists a GitHub repo as the package's homepage, but the changes weren't published until a few hours ago, almost two weeks after the package was built and hours after people were talking about this issue. Here a comment by a dev admitting the changes weren't pushed to GitHub until today: https://github.com/RPi-Distro/raspberrypi-sys-mods/issues/41#issuecomment-773220437.

I think this is what you're talking about. As long as you've updated within the past three years, that's already happened.

There is no changelog about it and not even a commit on the package source repository: https://github.com/RPi-Distro/raspberrypi-sys-mods I was seriously worried until finding the responsible package and related topics on the Raspberry Pi Forum...

You can create ssh.txt instead. ssh and ssh.txt are both accepted.

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.

Eclipse runs the Open VSX registry that VS Codium uses. Eclipse also has a fork of VS Code called Theia.

The extension is not available on https://open-vsx.org/ ? (The market place for VSCodium)

Would you consider supporting the open vsx repo in your release workflow for those of us on VSCodium?

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).

Any chance you could publish it to Open VSX as well, for the people not using the Microsoft version?

no there's lots of extensions available on vscodium, just not the same ones (https://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
