The post not long ago about how far the built in autocomplete has come got me to trim down a bit of my config. Seeing that treesit stuff is getting folded in, I may make another effort at trimming down.

It is crazy nice how invisible the native compilation became.

Which autocomplete mode? fido-vertical-mode, completion-preview-mode, or something else that I should maybe look into?

I switched from vertico to fido-vertical myself, but still use company for in-buffer completions. I tried corfu and completion-preview several times but didn’t get something I’m happy with from it.

My humble apologies on missing this way back when. Checking my init, I seem to just have:

    ;; TODO: Remove?  Maybe.  For now, trying the following.
    (icomplete-vertical-mode 1)
    (setq icomplete-delay-completions-threshold 0)
    (setq icomplete-compute-delay 0)
    (setq icomplete-show-matches-on-no-input t)
    (setq icomplete-scroll t)
It has been working fine. Took a bit of getting used to it not defaulting to arrow keys, but not that hard. And I think I see you can enable that, now.
