I know github would probably steal it (I have my own forgejo server). Didn’t know about VS code doing that. You have any source for that? I guess proprietary MS plugins might do so, but surely there would be backlash if the open source version did so. So I hope using Code OSS would be fine. Might switch to vscodium though, which shouldn’t phone home at all.
I’d also add this reason (in addition to embarrasement): I don’t open source my stuff because I know microsoft will “steal it” to train copilot.
Dont even need to make it open source for that. Just use either visual studio/vsc or have the code on github (private repo so not OSS)
