Hi can you push your extension to https://open-vsx.org/ in addition to VSCode Market Place so people using the FLOSS version could install it too?

I wrote an article on the subject.

Would be also nice for vscode-markdown-checkboxes, vscode-markdown-yaml-preamble and pack what I was using before switch to vscodium :)

P.S. If you give me permission, because you like the idea but don't want make it, I'm happy to help :)

Closing as I don't have time to test or publish on other editors and the low usage I've seen for them doesn't seem worth it

Every Linux distro uses FLOSS vscode or vscodium that uses Open VSX, all online version vscode such as https://github.dev, Github Codespace, Gitpod, Gitlab WebIDE, etc. all use Open VSX as registry. There is only Microsoft VSCode mostly used on Microsoft Windows that use Microsoft VSCode Marketplace.

Also it will not generate extra work, if the extension works, publishing it to one or two registries doesn't change the test time. And publishing can be automated with Github action or any CI.

0.2% of installs is not compelling

And yes even though I didn't officially publish these, I do get bugs that only happen in non-vscode editors. I'm not publishing something for platforms I don't test on
