Any alternative?

Hi, when I'm had reinstalled vscode, I recognized that the 'settings-sync' was deprecated, but I've been using this extension for a long time, I depend on it to sync my settings and extension via GitHub token and gist, and now all my vscode settings were gone, I tried to turn on sync on the latest version vscode. Still, nothing happened. Do you know if there is any alternative to fix it? Thanks.

Settings synching is now an officially supported feature of VS Code. You can enable it via File → Preferences → Turn on Settings Sync
*on Mac the File tab is replaced by Code

Thanks for your comment, but I'm pretty sure that I had turned on the sync on VS Code, but it doesn't sync my settings that I saved by 'settings-sync' before.
For open source builds, there is this:
https://open-vsx.org/extension/zokugun/sync-settings
Deprecated?! This extension is essential! Specifically, native settings syncing lacks the granularity that this extension provides specifically with sync-pragmas
(I use vscode cross-platform, and this allows me to sync different things based on OS...eg by providing this declaration // @sync os=windows or // @sync os=mac)
I made a "manual workflow" that is working so far. This workflow does not provide many features, but it allows me to use a regular repository (not a gist), which I think is better, and also to sync extensions files. If you want use it, I put the steps in this instruction. Hope it helps someone.
You can still install the extension from VSCode command palette if you want. Press Ctrl/Cmd + P type ext install Shan.code-settings-sync then enter.
