Ever heard of Firefox or Safari? I can open HN in any browser I want, but I can't change the browser used by the VSCode desktop app.

That's due to Electron, not Chromium.

Which is exactly why VSCode has a near parity version that runs on the web, under any browser engine.

Saying VSCode is based on Chromium doesn't make any sense.
