      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

    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.

        Backed by VC, so you know they’re just waiting for an exit

        it’s got telemetry on by default.

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

    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.
