Suggestions delay

If it is just a “simple“ feature for the team, so why not just give it a try and implement it? The thread is old enough and there are plenty of people requesting this change. The editor keeps suggesting the most absurd changes to the code, which I accidentally press whenever switching between tabs and literally tired of rejecting the suggestions at this point.

I asked Cursor how to disable the Tab completion suggestions and the AI chat suggested and hallucinated an alternative solution of editing the delay time setting — basically this feature request. And then when I couldn’t find it, I found that I was upset it didn’t exist.

I guess I’ll be joining the disable (more likely) or snooze Cursor Tab train. To all of you who contributed to this thread with alternative solutions, thank you. I like to heavily use the normal variable/function/keyword tab completion, and if your internet is good, Cursor’s suggestions are just so fast and distracting and I find that I use it on accident very often.

I am shocked that there’s not a setting to adjust the time delay for the cursor TAB autocomplete.

Every day I quit cursor to use VSCode instead because the tab autocompletes (while helpful) are ANNOYINGLY fast. Even just 300 more milliseconds would make my and thousands of others’ users’ day better.

I also imagine the time to implement this feature would be one single day MAX for a single dev on the Cursor team, if not in an hour. It’s super minimal.

I imagine there are reason the Cursor team doesn’t want to implement this.

Probably financial reasons.

Every tab makes a request, and the more requests you make, the more money you spend, is my guess?

A 30 billion dollar company would cut such a feature for “financial” issues?
