After the recent change where Microsoft started adding their advertisements into your commit messages in VSCode, I really want to migrate away from it. However, I'm really struggling to find alternatives. Many people were recommending Zed, so I spent time now trying to make it work, and unfortunately, it just doesn't work (I encountered a plethora of problems when trying to run a Jupyter notebook, and in the end I got it to a state where it churns for a long time and then silently fails without an error message)

Are you saying that it should work for Jupyter notebooks?

For the times I need to use VSCode, I use VSCodium instead. I'm not sure how this recent Copilot issue affects them though.
Seems like VSCodium just VSCode. They describe it like this:
> The VSCodium project exists so that you don’t have to download+build from source. This project includes special build scripts that clone Microsoft’s vscode repo, run the build commands, and upload the resulting binaries for you to GitHub releases.

There are several VSCode based AI editors. I use Trae from Bytedance.

Which of these projects will keep up-to-date with the original VSCode? (e.g. apply user-hostile changes that Microsoft pushes)
