Is there a way to tie VSCode extensions to their VSCodium counterparts? I installed codium and started manually installing plugins, but realized that authors, etc don't match up. For example, the Rails plugin in official VSCode shows "周鹏" as the author and 245K downloads, but in codium it's "bung87" with only 3.9K downloads.

I'm just thinking about supply chain attacks. I don't personally review all extension code on the VSCode side, but there's a certain amount of (false) comfort when over 200K folks have downloaded a particular extension.
