Hi! I’m having a bit of a struggle with VSCodium. I’m not sure what I did, but I can’t access the liveserver in my browser, and the extensions won’t load to download them. I keep getting “Error fetching extensions. Failed to fetch” So that’s been frustrating. Are there any fixes? What’s a good VSCodium alternative I could try?

So I figured out why VSCodium wasn’t working, and it was because one of my firewalls hadn’t allowed VSCodium through yet, but now I allowed it on my firewall, and it works now.
Emacs. It lacks a marketing department, but everything is homebrew and unlimited true hacker territory in the original meaning of the term. You can start with the menus enabled so that you do not need to know all the hotkeys right away. You should probably start with Doom Emacs for much of the configuration stuff done for you, but GNU Emacs is a base configuration. One great blog resource is: https://sachachua.com/
This is one of her creations I reworked and use as a desktop background reference:
Emacs is not just a text editor or IDE, it is much much more and all of these.
I am a happy user of Spacemacs. Sacha Chua is awesome and also on the fediverse: https://social.sachachua.com/@sacha
