websocket blocked over https

[yonisidi]

Describe the bug

I am running R on a VSC remote server and when initiating a plot the external browser is opened, but then no plots are being sent to the new page in the browser. when i look in the js console to see problems i see that the ws is being blocked

To Reproduce

my Rprofile is

if (interactive() && Sys.getenv("TERM_PROGRAM") == "vscode") {
  if (requireNamespace("httpgd", quietly = TRUE)) {
    options(vsc.plot = FALSE)
    options(device = function(...) {
      httpgd::hgd(silent = TRUE)
      .vsc.browser(httpgd::hgd_url(history = FALSE), viewer = "Beside")
    })
  }
}

plot i am creating

> plot(1:10, 1:10)
#VSCode is not running on localhost but on a remote server.
#Opening in external browser...
#Browsing https://apps.workbench.p171649450587.aws-amer.sanofi.com/oneai-rwd-cmei-ibd/cemi-ibd/code-#server/proxy/33755/live?history=FALSE&token=i8pVQ3EH

Expected behavior

plot sent to external browser

Same problem while using vscode tunnel to forward the port on remote machine.
Even allow the mix content do not show figure but only the framework, and still "Failed to construct "WebSocket"

IMHO due to
