It's funny you mention this, because I like to use vscode over ssh. I believe the editor updates the screen before the change is ever made on the server, so it feels nice and responsive like you're coding on your home machine.

Not trying to take merit away from VSCode, but emacs and tramp mode also do that. And not just with remote machines over ssh, docker containers work as well. Also docker containers over an ssh connection (or whatever crazy combination you may need).

You get latency-free editing because the file is edited locally and sent to the server on save. Simple implementation but highly effective.
