Quickly edit code on a local or remote machine with the same editor that powers VSCode.

so it's vscode, but not. you can just install an extention to get remote abilities.

Unfortunately this terminal emulator uses electron, but otherwise looks nice

No Zsh support for now, and maybe no user fonts?

And a warning: it's got telemetry on by default.

it's got telemetry on by default.

Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so

What the fuck does it actually do, and what is one use case?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Well it collects data from you, and one use case for your data is allowing a nice 💰 exit for the venture capital -backed company building it.

Other than that, not a whole lot that's worth yet another "powered by open web standards" Electron piece of shit

"built on an open web framework...."

hard pass then. Why the hell would I want to open a browser instance for a terminal???
