If its forked from a Foss project then its necessarily a Foss project. That's why we use Foss licenses.
Right, exactly, which is why they launched with a FOSS license. Oh, wait--
Imagine the money going to VSCode which actually is the one getting contributions
If you're upset, just ask them for the source. If they don't respond, sue.
In any case, we're all going to get the source and we'll all benefit from this.
The source is literally just VSCode with a different label. What benefit does that have?
