Description

Currently using the Vscode on Apple M1 Pro Running Sonoma 14.4.1 with Vscode Version: 1.89.1 and Vim Extension v1.27.2,

It keeps freezing without allowing to insert mode or visual mode, until i disable the extension before, I can proceed.

Can someone look into it.

Thanks

Research direction

Start by reproducing the freeze with VSCode 1.89.1 and Vim Extension v1.27.2 on Apple M1 Pro running Sonoma 14.4.1, checking whether insert mode or visual mode can be entered. Compare behavior with the extension disabled; done means the extension no longer freezes and both modes remain usable.
