Hi @mfertala, you are references the correct wiki page (https://github.com/OmniSharp/omnisharp-vscode/wiki/Remote-Debugging-On-Linux-Arm), but you aren't quite following the instructions as they do NOT tell you to use the VS Code remote extension feature. This extension doesn't support running on ARM (see #2771). Up to you of course, but if ARM support is added to this extension I would recommend against using it in remote scenarios -- the language service can be quite compute intensive, so you are better off building locally and copying than trying to do everything on the Pi.

When was it broken? I remember it working perfectly fine not this much time ago 🤔

@Aemilivs If you are asking about running this extension on ARM (not remote debugging): no, it has never been supported.
