I only used it for the automatic blame behind the cursor, but I just learned that that is built-in to VS Code (something like “toggle blame decorator”). The built-in one is faster too.
I just found it - it's "Git > Blame > Editor Decoration: Enabled" and holy is it so much faster. I love every time I can replace an extension with native functionality.
Interesting. I've been using Gitlens for years without issue. Today I tried the built-in blame decorations and I found they were so responsive and fast that they were distracting. With Gitlens there's a delay before the decoration appears on a line, so if you're moving your cursor quickly around between lines you don't actually get a blame decoration until you've rested there for a few seconds; with the built-in functionality it pops right up as soon as the line focuses so if you go from line to line, there's a lot of activity in your field of view which makes it harder for me to concentrate on the code.
As an adjustment, for now, I'm sticking with the built-in functionality but enabling only the status bar display, whose template I modified to include the commit message and date.
