There are instructions for Arch on the website suggesting to install vscodium package from AUR, like
sudo yay -S vscodium
But there are no such package! I guess it should be vscodium-bin.

Also, yay warns you to not run it as root. It just asks you for the password when it needs it, running it with sudo is probably a bad practice.
