Code-Server but with Codium?

I would like to run code-server but i don't like the idea of trackers hence codium. I found this old reddit thread but it wasn't particularly helpful.

Happy to be corrected but I think code server doesn’t use the exact vscode build from microsoft

And I think the trackers you are (rightly) concerned about aren’t in code server but they have their own equivalent. You can disable the telemetry though

Maybe this? https://theia-ide.org/
- I saw that in the reddit thread I like codium have been using it for ages and have a bunch of plugins I like.
  
  Afaik it uses a very similar codebase and plugins can be easily ported or might even work out of the box.
