What Hacker News says

I tried nvim-compe, but it explicitly doesn't support signatures (see https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe#does-not-work-function... ). So I installed the recommended lsp_signature.nvim and it's a bit of a mess. The UI for lsp_signature has enormous borders and doesn't match at all with the rest of compe. Perhaps there are ways to tweak lsp_signature UI... but at this point, I chucked it all and went back to coc.nvim which does it all (suggestions, signatures, etc.) all with the same UI. Make it like that--make it work with all UI out of the box and not make me dig through tons of plugins. That's my honest suggestion. Sorry I'm not joining a discord, etc. to give this feedback.
