Description

Kubernetes deprecated Docker as a container runtime after v1.20 at the end of 2020 year with removing in v1.22 in late 2021.

So now there is more and more servers, that uses other container runtimes (containerd, CRI-O) instead of Docker.

But Visual Studio Code Remote - Containers extension doesn't see CRI containers, that using runtime other than Docker, because instead of list of containers I see the placeholder:

Get started with containers by installing Docker or by visiting the help view.

So, is it possible to add support for other container runtimes to VS Code Remote Containers extension?
