    So -- this guy used an extension (named Rust) with rust-analyzer, which was known to not work, and it didn't work(!), and the Rust extension author recommends he tries the extension made for rust-analyzer. That extension doesn't have the features he likes (it works for me and has loads of features, so I have no idea what this is about?), and so they close the issue?

    Hardly a case for the ages. Guy uses unsupported config and things don't work?

    Don't doubt it. I'm just saying -- I haven't had any problems with the rust-analyzer extension since it became the Rust default. But, yes, I had a few hiccups and crashes beforehand, no doubt. I just have to imagine it's both younger, and doing more/different things than clangd.

    I know. It's been argued for a long time. But at least if you follow the advice to install RA, it's fine. And if you don't, you won't be able to install RLS anyway, but instead get a helpful message pointing to RA.

    But the last commit to the Code extension was almost one year ago (an URL update), a pull request for a pretty annoying issue was not merged in more than a year, and the only activity on the issue tracker is people complaining about old issues and sometimes me asking them nicely to try rust-analyzer instead (but only when I'm pretty certain that their issue does not happen in RA).

    It's been asked before: https://github.com/rust-lang/vscode-rust/issues/927. Basically, rust-analyzer is not (yet?) a rust-lang.org project and it's not even going to be mentioned in the official docs until that happens.

    Yeah, see e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/vscode-rust/issues/880.

    RA will be merged with the vscode-rust extension and aims to replace RLS (tracking issue on the vscode-rust repo).
