There's also the Eclipse VScode-look-alike-reimplementation called TheiaIDE

https://theia-ide.org/

It was rough a few years ago, but nowadays it's pretty nice. TI rebuilt their Code Composer Studio using Theia so it does have some larger users. It has LSP support and the same Monaco editor backend - which is all I need.

It's VSCode-with-an-Eclipse-feel to it - which might or might not be your cup of tea, but it's an alternative.

The feature that keeps me from moving off of vscode is their markdown support. In particular the ability to drag and drop to insert links to files and images *. Surprisingly, no other editor does this even though I use it all the time.

It's also a good alternative to Obisdian if you don't need smartphone support.

https://dendron.so/ is more or less Obsidian in VSCode, and free and open source.

But Dendron is a zombie project.

I don’t mind project being done and in maintenance mode. But I am not investing my time into starting using it.

Getting started page has screenshots broken on AWS.

I took the plunge and don't regret it. Despite the condition of the web site the extension is very useful and relatively free of any annoying bugs.

At some point in time, I'd like to take the time to invest building a custom version of the extension to bump dependencies to access more modern support for plantuml/mermaid diagrams.
