Lots of breaking changes. It seems like all of the changes are breaking something according to these release notes.

Also my CPU now longer overheats when holding space. WTF?

One breaking change, that they doesn't list as breaking (I guess since I assume the old was always broken) is: Dynamic registration of LSP capabilities. An implication of this change is that checking a client's server_capabilities is no longer a sufficient indicator to see if a server supports a feature. Instead use client.supports_method(). It considers both the dynamic capabilities and static server_capabilities.

So if you had code like

if client.server_capabilities.inlayHintProvider then
...
end

you now should use

if client.supports_method("inlayHintProvider") then
...
end

So, not really a breaking change I guess, but something you should change any way.

:lua with a [range] executes that range as Lua code, in any buffer.

Finally! Something similar to M-x eval-region built-in (as far as I'm aware).
