VS Codium instead VS Code

[Gaston]

How can I use STM32 extension from VS Codium?

VS Code is a non-truly open source as MS claims --> https://www.roboleary.net/tools/2022/05/31/vscode-vscodium-which-should-i-use.html

Hi @Gaston 

we only support VSCode Market place

Would love to support VS Codium too. But as Nawres phrased it VS Codium does not have access to Microsoft VS Code marketplace. Consequently no access to the dependencies that our solution has on extensions like the CMake Tools from Microsoft. We can/should not try to develop a parallel CMake tools offering. The investment is huuuuuuge.

Would be curious to know how many developers out there who would push for VS Codium instead of VS Code.
And what are you main rationales behind?
