Doesn’t anyone else use things like OpenSnitch to audit all outgoing connections? I block all phone homes until something breaks, then investigate.
If you are trapped on Windows for some corporate reason, there is SimpleWall.
We’re friends, and friends don’t let friends let apps phone home.
VScode is certainly a heck of a lot easier to get LSPs working than e.g. vim.
If someone made it actually easy to set up neovim with lsp support that works as well as with vscode, there’d be no reason to give Microsoft any attention at all
This was one of my biggest issues, but I did manage to succesfully switch to nvim few months ago, by installing ideavim into Rider, vscode-vim into vscode (so I can’t easily escape it when I get lazy), but most importantly - setting LazyVim as my default editor, which has been a lifesaver.
It has a pretty good LazyExtras interface for easily installing a ton of plugins, almost for every language. You just open the LazyVim menu, select a language you want, and it installs LSPs, debuggers and whatnot you may need for it. It’s probably using the nvim-lspconfig mentioned in other comments, but it has been pretty seamless.
But any other pre-made nvim config will work, this one is just more approachable than someone’s random plugin list.
