Confusable characters get a little yellow box which is different from the squiggly underlines most linters and stuff use which at least makes it a bit more recogniseable.

Personally I can't stand having underlines all over my code, so I'll usually just "fix" the non-issue if possible, or otherwise just disable whatever the warning is entirely.

Ahh the solution is simple, in VS Code add these lines to your general config

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "editorError.foreground": "#00000000",
        "editorWarning.foreground": "#00000000",
        "editorInfo.foreground": "#00000000", 
    },

Then get the error lens extension, it's so much more pleasant. Visual example

I love that look, ugh. The inline errors are much more visually appealing vs the usual squiggly underline

I might need to look at vscodium since I'm not too keen on having more microsoft telemetry on my desktop. Been using Atom for personal projects thus far.
