Hi. I don't know if that's related, but when recently VSCode started to show clangd as a recommended extension for the project. Which I installed.
This broke several features for me (and I use VSCode all the time). One in particular was the inability to switch between code and header (Ctrl-K Ctrl-O). Finding symbol definition broke under many cases too. So I ended up uninstalling the clangd extension. Is this a known issue?
