One thing I really like in coc is I can ask to describe a symbol and it'll tell me about it in a hover thing: https://i.imgur.com/NrH0Wwz.png

Do agree that coc is probably the least 'vim-culture'-ey part of such a setup, but hey it does good things. :) I don't think you need to justify using Ale so hard and put coc down, could just use whichever you prefer personally.

Sorry if I came across that way. Agree people should use the things they prefer. :)

I'm trying to see if I'm missing something big/obvious, since coc.vim has been so popular recently.

No worries! And yeah I went through a phase a few months ago of trying out the completion packages again, it's worth just trying and seeing if you like it. Here's the relevant bits of my config if that helps: https://gist.github.com/nikki93/6ea403d3e2cbff2b3d32d4528edf...

coc.nvim has pretty much worked pretty well out of the box for many languages, and it works for me on macOS, Linux and Windows.
