I'm definitely for any alternative to an MS solution (especially one where I have to give them actual money to use it), but I had kind of the same experience. Not extensive testing, and I'm using it in PyCharm, so I don't know if that changes the behavior.
The completion was weird. I tried to type "#Function to return the value passed". And it started to autocomplete with what I typed and what it was suggesting all jumbled up and completely unintelligible. Once I hit tab, it completed correctly, but it didn't make any sense until I hit tab, so I couldn't really see what I was completing until it was done.
The more I played with it, I noticed it started to not actually suggest anything. But the codeium plugin is just showing a wait spinner in my status bar, so maybe it's getting pounded with HN people testing it right now.
