Describe the bug
If I want an extension, I can see it in VSCode marketplace, but if I search in Codium, it says it's not available. Not all extensions have this problem, few has like "pomodoro-timer", "vscode-pets", etc. This make me manually install Extension (VSIX) and I have to look in the web every time for any updates. Or will it check for updates automatically.

Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific

• This bug doesn't happen if I use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. It only happens in VSCodium.

Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented

• I checked the Docs page and my issue is not mentioned there.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'Extensions tab'
2. Type vscode-pets and it will say not available. You can refer the marketplace too.

Expected behavior
I don't exactly want Codium to have all extensions inside it unless Codium checks for updates for extension whcih was manually install. If it doesn't check, then this is a problem for me, and also to swirch back to VS-Code.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Zorin Lite 15.3
• 64 Bit
• Version : 1.53.2-1613089951 (according to the command sudo apt show codium)

What exact 2 lines?
I think that should be in README or on https://vscodium.com/ saing that vscodium is using https://open-vsx.org/
and because Microsoft limits its marketplace usage to Microsoft products, so authors should care to release to alternative registries as well.

You should ask the creator of the extension/s to release it for VS Codium as well. It ls literally 2 lines of code if it is CI.

@superkevin07 It's due to license limitation. Read the readme for more informations.
