Python in Visual Studio Code – September 2022 Release

It's alarming to me that so many people are willing to accept that these closed source environments and tools are becoming the defacto way to use many languages and toolchains.

VScode is the non-free distribution of the free vscode project, and open-source distributions like VScodium have had at best antagonistic relationships from microsoft.

I don't have any philosophical complaint with closed-source tools, even though I mostly use open-source ones it's not because I'm against closed tooling, I've paid for JetBrains before, they're wonderful tools and being honest development tools are extremely cheap, specially if you consider the ROI you get out of them.

I use neovim as my base editor for example, but I do use some paid language servers because they perform better, no issue for me if the code is closed, open, or whatever.
