Glad you mentioned "Cursor has been a terrible experience lately", as I was planning to finally give it a try. I'd heard it has the best auto-complete, which I don't get use VSCode with Claude Code in the terminal.

You should still give it a try. Can’t speak for their experience, but doesn’t ring true for me.

+1, it had a bad period when they were hyperscaling up, but IME they've found their pace (very) recently - I almost ditched cursor in the summer, but am a quite happy user now.

I haven’t used Cursor since I use Neovim and it’s hard to move out.

The auto-complete suggestions from FIM models (either open source or even something Gemini Flash) punch far above their weight. That combined with CC/Codex has been a good setup for me.
