It's not just editors/IDEs though... Which diff/merge tools support language servers currently? i.e. how do you thoroughly code-review changes without switchi

  GitHub and VSCode both allow this (and I'm sure other rich editors do too). In fact, using GitLab at work, I open up most of the MRs I review in my local editor specifically for this reason

    Do you mean "github.com" or Atom their editor? Yeah, sure Rich Editors support the "basics" of diffing, but for complex (i.e. 3-way) merges, I find them pretty limiting: stuff like Beyond Compare, p4diff are more useful in those situations IMO.

      Yeah, github.com has started adding rich hover-overs and click-throughs on their web interface for some languages I'm not familiar with those other tools, but it's not hard to imagine they or similar tools could one day add rich language integration using language servers, tree-sitter, or something else
