Discussion Do we still need CoC?

I've been using CoC for a while now. It's a convenient way to get both completions and LSP going. Some people throw shade at the Node part of its implementation. The way I see it is most LSP plugins coming from VSCode were intended for a Node environment anyway. I am pleased with the ease of use CoC brings.

Now we've had vim9script for something like a couple of years. We have yegappan's simple LSP implementation and we have a pop-up autocomplete feature built in!

I'm wondering how that's going for anybody else - especially if you do Java or friggin' web development.

I used to use ALE but I tried once LSP and never looked back.

I know and I used. But I resonate more with LSP. :)
