+### VSCodium Update API
+
+When searching the `@tag:usesOnlineServices` filter, note that while the "Update: Mode" setting description still says "The updates are fetched from a Microsoft online service", VSCodium's [build script sets](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/prepare_vscode.sh#L36) the `updateUrl` field in `product.json` to that of VSCodium's own small [update server](https://github.com/VSCodium/update-api), so enabling that setting won't actually result in any calls to Microsoft servers.
