    Unlisted buffers and buffers without filetypes aren't listed shown in the tabline (you can see the relevant code here). I find that as long as I stay on top of closing unused file buffers, I don't experience any LSP slowdown (but I also exit and reopen Neovim pretty regularly, so I can't say for sure).

  • Help with Unicode Characters
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 5 Aug 2021
    I've tried the plugin Nvim-Tree - https://github.com/kyazdani42/nvim-tree.lua and Staline - https://github.com/tamton-aquib/staline.nvim on a Neovim nightly release using both Windows 10 and Ubuntu Budgie. Both of these plugins use Unicode characters to display icons, however using both OS's I can't seem to display them (see the first attached screenshot). I am using Nvim-qt on Windows and Tilix on Ubuntu to run Neovim; both of which support UTF-8 character encoding. Could anyone please advise me as to how to fix this issue.
