It's also a sample of people who, if they run into issues with Codespaces, are just a Slack message away from someone who can fix it.

yes but thats the great thing about dogfooding. give it a year or two of this tight feedback loop and Codespaces will be really really solid

Given that they apparently couldn't get their setup scripts in order[0] in 13 years I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Do you know whether they use the public Codespaces or a customized version?

I don't. My initial comment is assuming they use the public version. Whether they use the public or a private version they still have back-channels for support that the rest of us don't have access to.
