I tried with Lua. I installed the language server and followed the instructions and fiddled with it until it worked, doing multiple web researches over a time of 40-60 Minutes.
All I got was a bunch of
W
for lines where I used global variables, and some underlined text with “no information available” and a table variable showing what keys the table has.No autocomplete, no information on parameters, no nothing.
This is not good or convenient at all and we should stop lying to ourselves. LSP in Neovim is utterly annoying and complicated to set up properly.
IDK, I've mainly used the lspconfig plugin and haven't really had problems in general, but some LSPs seem weaker than others
