Breaking Changes and Notices

• Python: Fixed an issue where multiple language servers were enabled by default. Now only basedpyright and ruff are enabled by default when opening Python files. If you prefer one of the others, see the docs to configure them. (#40604)
• Vim: Changed ctrl+w + shift-[hjkl] in Vim mode to move the split to span the entire border, aligning with Vim's behavior. (#39123; thanks tie)
• Updated both the editor: add selection above and editor: add selection below commands to ignore soft wrapped lines. If you wish to restore the old behavior, add the following to your keymap file. (#40190):

  {
    "context": "Editor",
    "bindings": {
      "cmd-alt-up": ["editor::AddSelectionAbove", { "skip_soft_wrap": false }],
      "cmd-alt-down": ["editor::AddSelectionBelow", { "skip_soft_wrap": false }]
    }
  }
