Taking the tabline to a new level, without plugins!
You’re right, I essentially built my own plugin. And I know could use a plugin like vim-buftabline or vim-buffet to accomplish a similar look.

Is it possible to jump to Nth buffer?
ap/vim-buftabline can display the buffer number which you can use in :bN commands, no idea if it works in neovim. But I most often use tab completion in a :b command.

I'm seeing a "new" trend in tabline plugins and I don't understand it
It's also not a (super) new idea – my plugin is just a Lua ripoff of [vim-buftabline](https://github.com/ap/vim-buftabline), which had its first commit in 2014, and I think Airline may have had it before then.

In this plugin wishlist thread, I mentioned how I'd like to see an implementation of vim-buftabline in Lua. -olivier directed me to his plugin, nvim-bufbar, and encouraged me to use it as a base.

buftabline.nvim: a low-config, minimalistic buffer tabline Neovim plugin
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).
