From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can you open Drive files in Codium?
My guess is no, since the folder is a magical protocol address that I assume VScode/codium wouldn't understand for they insist on handling the directory hierarchy directly. Haven't really troubleshoot that workflow though. I use exclusively Git with GitHub/GitLab. So there's no need for GDrive with an IDE for me. My Drive is exclusively for personal files which most other Linux-as-a-first-class-citizen applications (LibreOffice, PDF readers, photo viewers and editors) just use as the OS gives it to them without issue.
ADD: I would imagine there's an additional complication depending on whether Codium is running from repository or Flatplak.
Yeah
Hmm. It’s not working in Manjaro for me. Is it as easy as just opening any other folder? I have Drive added in KDE and can see my files but I cannot add a folder from drive in Codium.
I'm not sure about kde sorry-- I'm using it in fedora w/gnome
