What a VS Code verified publisher badge means, compared with Open VSX →
Finds the dependencies whose licence changed under you - Terraform 1.6+ BUSL, Redis 7.4+ SSPL, Bitnami's August 2025 move, Elastic 7.11 - and names the exact version where each flip happened.
Daily readings on both stores, taken by us. As of 25 Sept 2026.
Each bar is one day’s change in the store’s own counter. Open VSX counts a download on every update, so a day includes updates by people who already had it.
Positions observed daily on both stores. Neither store publishes this, and the two run separate search engines over separate catalogues.
