Hi, I'm obviously not a developer but I was just looking through issues for fun really, I hope you don't mind my input. I wonder if you have tried reinstalling vscode - I know it's not ideal but it looks like your machine could have installed it incorrectly. You could also try installing it using the .deb package from Microsoft as it's possible the version installed by apt is broken somehow. Also have you tried launching it from your DE instead of the terminal?
