If you are on a Mac and have Homebrew installed:
brew install --cask vscodium
Note for Mac OS X Mojave users: if you see “App can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software” when opening VSCodium the first time, you can right-click the application and choose Open. This should only be required the first time opening on Mojave.

winget install vscodium
If you use Windows and have Chocolatey installed (thanks to @Thilas):
choco install vscodium
If you use Windows and have Scoop installed:
