Alternatively, just use your favorite GUI Emacs with either `tramp` or `sshfs`.

  I have tried to love TRAMP, but I can't figure out how to get eglot to work properly. I use it for C++ in a large codebase, so eglot is mandatory. The other thing is that I like to close my laptop, reopen it the next day, and have access to the same remote buffers. (Maybe this is possible with TRAMP.) Ultimately I just use emacs in tmux over ssh, with CLICOLOR defined appropriately, and this gets me 95% of what I want. I wish I could get rid of those last <50ms of keypress latency. And variable-sized fonts for eglot inlay type annotations. They are quite distracting when they're the same size as the code.

    TRAMP remote buffers aren’t a huge issue on disconnection because the buffer contents are stored locally: TRAMP’s magic mostly occurs on open and save. Unfortunately, your modew like eglot have to be TRAMP-aware and execute over a ssh connection somehow. Many LSP servers use stdio communication, so it should be possible to put together a mode hook that detects if the buffer file name is a TRAMP file name and then does something like `ssh remotehost -- cd /project/root ‘&&’ clangd --stdio`

      Eglot does that automatically though. It detects when you're in TRAMP and launches the language server in a remote. Of course, it assumes that the language server exists at the remote, but that should be the case.

        I tried again today, I was wrong. Eglot works for about 30 seconds and then hangs without writing anything in the Messages buffer.
