On the Eclipse Theia IDE download page [0] it still says:
>NOTE: The Eclipse Theia IDE is currently in beta.
Does "exits beta" mean that it will at some point in the future exit the beta? I understood it to mean that it is out of beta today.

For now, you may want to use VSCodium [1], which is a variant of VSCode which doesn't ship any non-free components (and also doesn't include Microsoft telemetry and such).

Astronvim[0] is plug and play. Easy to add LSPs (Mason), easy to add syntax highlighting (TreeSitter), and easy to configure (Lua, no JSON).
I can't stand VSCode due to personal preference [1], but I won't fault someone else using it. If configuration is stopping you from using neovim, use Astronvim or another pre built solution.

Prototype of a plaintext accounting environment using theia-ide, beancount, fava, and more...
> "The main focus of Theia (and Eclipse in general) is to provide a framework/base for creating a custom IDE product, not necessarily to provide a working IDE out of the box."
Yep. An important repo Theia has is it's 'Theia Blueprint' repo so one wanting to make a custom IDE has a good place out of the box to start.
FWIW, I prototyped gluing together existing plaintext accounting tools (Beancount, Fava, vscode-beancount) under Eclipse Theia a while back ( https://github.com/seltzered/beancolage ). The potential of using a vscode-style base still seems a promising for certain applications but there's a learning curve to figuring out how the various dependencies and quirks of building an electron app work.
