OpenVSX, which VSCode forks rely on for extensions, down for 24 hours
Thanks, haven't tried it yet, but just found the relevant configuration settings described in the docs [0] and more detail on Stack Overflow [1].

I just got an ad in VS Code
A 1st party ad is still an ad, though in isolation I do I agree that it's quite mild all considered. With context however (this being Microsoft's doing, and all the AI/Adware/telemetry/darkpatterns they're cramming into everything), I share OP's derision for this development in a tool that has become a centerpiece for many developers workflows, dev environments, and ancillary (plugins) ecosystems.
Thankfully, for now at least, VSCode is MIT Licensed [0], source available [1], and if built from source it does not include CoPilot, Telemetry or MS' other crapware or branding. VS Codium [2] compiles this source for you without the cruft and makes those binaries/installers available [3] if like.
For those that like CoPilot, VSCodium even has a guide on how to add it to VSCodium/Source Built VSCode [4]

Xcode Constantly Phones Home
Notably absent are all of the remote debugging extensions and Copilot. This would be a deal-breaker for many.

A Comment on Mozilla's Policy Changes
Thanks, good spot.
So Mozilla, an organisation that commends itself for working to put control of the internet back in the hands of the people using it, [0] is creating a situation where the FOSS community needs to maintain its own 'cleansed' builds, akin to VS Code/VS Codium [1] and, to a lesser extent, Chrome/Chromium. [2] (The Chromium case is somewhat different; Google maintains both the FOSS Chromium builds and the non-Free Chrome builds).
4 years ago I commented that It's just non-stop with Mozilla, isn't it? They have the curious pairing of technical excellence, and a long history of awful non-technical decision-making. Little seems to have changed. [3]

I still like Sublime Text in 2025
I've been running vscodium for a couple of years now, and they rip out the MS specific stuff so no ChatGPT and so forth. I haven't noticed any slowdowns.
Maybe give it a try? https://vscodium.com/

Ask HN: Open-Source editor with local code completion?
Continue [0] is open source and supports local models. I still haven't found time to try it out yet. If you host it in VSCodium [1], you would have pretty much what you asked for.
