At least they are being honest. If you look at release notes for the past year or so, almost every improvement is related to co-pilot.

Thankfully, you can still disable all that garbage and just use it as a text editor.

They still aren't honest about the fact that the official VSCode distribution isn't fully open source because, for example: you can't have VSCodium connect to the official plugin repository. It also isn't the only editor with AI integration, and more specifically these systems use LLMs.

It would therefore be more honest to say that VSCode is "a visible source LLM code editor".

That doesn’t make VSCode not open source. It’s fair that third party integrations like the extension store, or some extensions, are not open source. That’s what they are, extensions.
