I'd like to set up my emacs with lsp-mode and lsp-ui, but I am finding myself in some analysis paralysis. Ruling out the Palantir language server because it's deprecated and because it's Palantir, that still leaves me with five language server recommendations from lsp-mode.

Anybody have any opinions they'd like to share? Any really bad experiences I should avoid? How do I configure your favorite? (Feel free to assume I know very little about configuring emacs.)

If it makes a difference, I am a poetry user and a religious mypy --strict user.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like things are going very wrong in lsp land. The point of a language server is to support lots of types of tools through an abstracted server. Not to have one server per tool.

Otherwise, just use fly-checker. It can even get information from multiple tools at once.

what do you mean by one server per tool?

Op was listing different Lsp servers for things like jedi, pyright, etc. All of those things should really integrate with a single server.
