I run a $5 a month Linode with code-server on it, and use Tailscale to access it, and Tailscale Funnel to publish a web server on it.

I'm kind of happy as a clam.

I know that MS Visual Studio is a lot nicer for C# development. But yeah, I'm really enjoying having this cloud code environment available from anywhere.

What extensions are you using for C# on code-server? AFAIK the official C# extensions from Microsoft (C# base and dev kit) aren’t licensed for non-vscode use.

Well, I think I'm doing the dumbest thing possible, which is just running code-server with not many extensions...

I'm using code-server as a dumb text editor, akin to using notepad.exe back in the day.

But I'm honestly very comfortable with that. Especially for the kind of code I'm writing.
