I get that it’s open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting

VSCode is an open source IDE. Its biggest rival is the JetBrains suite. When the alternatives are proprietary, VSCode is a win.
VSCode contains features not available in the real opensource version. It’s a bit of a Chrome vs. Chromium situation. There’s VSCodium, but it misses some features.
What features exactly?
Remote SSH is the one that I need.
There are plenty of open source remote SSH extensions in the vscodium extension library including one that will deploy the full Dev environment to the host so you can run your code there.
