I can't install any extensions via the Extension Marketplace

What I’ve noticed is that loading of extensions happens, but it takes literally 10-15 minutes before it completes. Maybe there’s a bottleneck in the marketplace endpoing.

A quick workaround that I discovered since I’m not really familliar with vscode, is to go to

find the plugin i want, then drag and drop into the extensions panel, thereby manually installing extensions.

I got the idea from

which I can only assume is outdated since step #2 doesnt work since the vscode online registry doesn’t have a download link anymore
