Description
Please add this useful extension to the Open VSX Registry.
Details on the publishing can be found at https://github.com/eclipse/openvsx/wiki/Publishing-Extensions.
A bit of explanation:
Open VSX Registry is the default extension provider endpoint for the free build of vscode VSCodium and Eclipse Theia, as well as browser versions like the one on GitPod. It would be nice to have this extension be directly published to a free vsix repository instead of only the Microsoft Marketplace with its restrictions.
You could also use a GitHub action that allows publishing to Open VSX and the MS market place, HaaLeo/publish-vscode-extension does this.
