When using cursor tab, I can’t see any of the autocompletions before accepting them. I know there is a suggestion, because the surrounding code becomes highlighted, and I can tab to accept it, but I can’t actually see the suggestion before accepting it.

Hey, thanks for the report. Could you let me know: Do you have a Pro subscription? Is your internet connection working fine? Are you using a VPN or proxy? Are you using a firewall? The problem might also be related to restrictions from your provider, so please try using a different network for te…

Yes, I have a Pro subscription. Yes, my internet connection is working fine. No, I don’t use a VPN. No, I don’t use a firewall. It’s definitely not a problem with my internet connection, because my colleagues in other cities and countries are experiencing the same issue. I’ve also noticed that th…
