#2008
In Linux, neovim's client capability is
didChangeWatchedFiles: { dynamicRegistration: false }
. When this first happened, I think it was the client's responsibility to add the watcher in this case; however, it turned out to be a bit problematic, and it is the top 3 most commented closed issue 😅 . The neovim+Linux users are probably a lot more than the users using an lsp client that has a watcher config in the client. It also isn't as capable as our fallback watcher: it likely doesn't support as many file extensions, and we can't add a watcher outside the project root.
