What happened:

Type something like code or any other words, then type a few spaces promptly.

I can't reproduce it. Is it possible it's some other extension interacting weirdly?

[octref]

When I disable Vim this no longer repros. Let me try again...

[octref]

I disabled all other extensions, still happens.

[Chillee]

lol this is bizarre. Do you have anything in your keybindings.json or settings.json that might cause something like this?

Also, is this something that broke recently, or are you installing VSCodeVim just now?

[octref]

I have been using it very long, this started to happen probably since a month ago.

Just tried moving ~/.vscode to ~/.vscode-backup, and installed Vim. Seems not happening anymore, so there must be something else I guess..

[octref]

It's still a mystery to me, but it's happening in other programs for me too so I guess it's not related to VSCodeVim.

[octref]

OK, it's a mac thing...

[Chillee]

lol wtf.

That setting was on?

[octref]

Yeah it was on. Have no idea why they would include this on macOS and turn it on by default...
