Hi, I'm a maintainer. I think this is a huge mischaracterization of the team. We definitely are aware (and inform users) the current state using the theia wrapper lags coc.nvim and vscode. We've never said anything disparaging about coc.nvim, and the built-in client is still seeing rapid development.

We provide a client, not language servers, so we're kinda at the mercy of whatever language servers exist. We offer a configuration in lspconfig for https://github.com/theia-ide/typescript-language-server which wraps tsserver, but there is hope that microsoft could implement lsp protocol directly for tsserver https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/39459#issueco... at which point the experience should be more comparable to coc.nvim.

On a different note, we have made upstream requests to MS, worked with language server authors, and generally try to contribute positively to the language server ecosystem. Neovim users will always be free to use coc.

If you have actionable items for improving the client, please reach out on our discourse or on our matrix channel. Thanks!
