I am 100% pushing my luck with Microsoft and the @vscode team 😅
This issue:
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/316987
Not going to lie, pretty good for readability. If they don’t merge it maybe give VSCodium a go.
VScodium AFAIK only builds straight from the repo.
So I am not sure if that is possible or not.
I use it though and it is such a relief to be away from microsofts dirty eyes while still using their products.
(Unfortunately, I am using the dart and flutter plugins, so Google still gets the privilege of spying on me, if anyone knows similar plugins without the google crap, do tell me in pm. I disable analytics, but no way this does anything.)
If the top left window actions can be one color each, then the bottom can too!
At the same company that immediately backtracked on a an image of a guy wearing a green hat in an installer? Probably.
Real happenings, Zero Bullshit
There was also the santa hat debacle
NOTE: I have zero fucks to give about ether of those specific issues, I’m just pointing out Microsoft’s spine for these things has the consistency of overcooked linguini
If you want that kind of features to be adopted, it’s best to the maintainer’s input before writing any code.
It’s likely for them to want some features on top of what you did (I can think about styling for instance, in which case the name “rainbow” might not be super appropriate?)
(I didn’t read the code, maybe you thought about that already)
it makes me sad that vscode extension api is so specific and constrained that this has to be done as a change to the editor code itself
