That's really neat, sounds like a great community's on here!
I see, could the bug report have just been forgotten by now? Long time, lol
Anyway, use what works for you honestly, Firefox is cool, but it doesn't have to be the only one
I mean you'd be running the server only when actually needed, but I understand it is a bit of a hassle to do every time as well
Ok, will do!
you have to install your extensions manually
No, why? There has been Open VSX integration for a long while now, it's pretty nice too! Though if you make use of some proprietary extensions then yes, you will have to resort to manual installation as Open VSX supports only open source extensions. If you use many of those then you can also setup the Microsoft extension Marketplace backend inside VSCodium as per the docs
Gnome builder is underrated IMO
..in fact I don't use it, but I'll still suggest it because, for the little trying I did, it seems solid and it gets rid of several of the headaches of setting up projects that greatly set back anyone who has to start for the first time, if I could talk to my past self, I'd tell him to use an actual IDE instead of my janky VSCodium setup, because learning build systems, dependency management and whatnot made me lose so much time and ultimately drop my projects, partly fault of there being no official standard way of doing project setup for C.
TL;DR Gnome builder is the new Code::Blocks, but good (sorry Codeblocks)
Yeah, it's not really for normal browsing though
If you make a new profile I think on some platforms you will see 2 icons, for me it wasn't the case at first, I tried following this guide for Windows and apply it to Linux, apparently without success, but then I found out that it is KDE's fault for grouping same app windows, so you right click on the icon in the taskbar click "More" and disable "Allow this program to be grouped"
Just curious, does that only affect macOS?
I tried on Linux and saw no hanging nor any cores at 100% usage, bit slow on performance though, yes
Lol, still, you can have separate profiles no?
So who's left of the legit ones that offers it?
