On: VSCode’s SSH agent is bananas

[kobalsky]

That is why I exclusively run vscode in a virtual machine and use it through a browser tab on the host machine.

Luckily the web version is indistinguishable from the "native" version, they did a great work there.

Just share a folder with the VM and then bind mount whatever you want to edit at the time. No need to trust the author with all your credentials.
