My experience with LSP (gopls specifically) in Emacs has been abysmal. It makes navigation even slower, opening files sometimes takes a second or two, but the worst issue is frequent crashing. lsp-mode with gopls is the only plugin I've used that crashes Emacs altogether. I've never lost much work thanks to autosave, but to say it was annoying is an understatement. Since I disabled both a few weeks ago, crashes stopped entirely. I probably should open an issue about it, but with the complexity of the entire stack I'm not sure what component is responsible, and frankly didn't have time to dig into it. So I'm glad that simple editors still exist that don't have LSP integration. There's a lot that can be accomplished with plain old ctags and grep.
