Well that sounds positive, imma dive in and try it while I do some further research.
A single user can be the difference. There is lots of us. Bloody communists...

---- Edit bit for those interested----
Some initial reading has revealed something interesting.
From https://vscodium.com/
Regarding the git repository containing the VS Code source.
Quote:
When we [Microsoft] build Visual Studio Code, we do exactly this. We clone the vscode repository, we lay down a customized product.json that has Microsoft specific functionality (telemetry, gallery, logo, etc.), and then produce a build that we release under our license.

When you clone and build from the vscode repo, none of these endpoints are configured in the default product.json. Therefore, you generate a “clean” build, without the Microsoft customizations, which is by default licensed under the MIT license
VS Codium builds a ready to use binary for those disinclined to do so.
