I've given up on coc.nvim

youcompleteme ftw

#vim

hihi, I went the other way, from youcompleteme to coc.nvim (mostly because of typescript)

It looks like Lua might bring a new fresh generation of bells and whistles to the table. I'm going to keep holding on to coc.nvim and keep an eye on Lua settling in the Vim eco-system.

I've enjoyed coc.nvim, but I've had lots of trouble trying to get the Python plugin up and running (on either MacOS or Linux). I was also frustrated at the number of 'X is not a function'-type errors, which are kind of a smell.

YCM is much older, and instead of having a bazillion plugins they just have one repository that supports tons of languages (including Rust).

I want to love coc.nvim, but I think YCM is more mature and probably what I need right now. Plus it works out of the box with no extra config, my only vimrc changes are two keyboard shortcuts.

update: I'm back on coc.nvim

:(
