visual studio code – vscode no longer shows remote ssh hostname on bottom left of window

I have been using vscode for several years, doing remote-system devlopment. MacOS hosts the vscode program. Until today (and there has been no intentional upgrade done), the hostnames used to appear where mose of these now say Launchpad (or approximately there, anyway…). Like I said, there has been no upgrade but I did install an extension (ESP-IDF) today. That was hours before the change appeared.

Thankfully, on the Mac I still see the hostnames in the taskbar:

I’m sure I have accidentally clicked on something to make that system name go away, but I have not been able to determine what it is. How can I get that back?
