+<p>I really like neovim since <a href="https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim">COC</a> is integrated with it to work nicely. Plus, I like the defaults and the fact there's a lot of active development on extensions. I didn't use it for a long time because I <em>needed</em> NerdTree but every time I'd scroll the window, I'd get a mess.</p>
+<h2 id="the-problem">The Problem</h2>
+<p><img src="/static/mess.gif" /></p>
+<p>Now, yes, I know I'm a heretic for using the arrow keys and not just jumping around, but I thought it was weird I didn't see this issue anywhere else. Also, vim doesn't have this problem.</p>
+<p><img src="/static/nomess-vim.gif" /></p>
+<p>It's also not because of my meme tmux setup, the same issue happens in terminator, which I happened to have installed.</p>
+<p><img src="/static/mess-terminator.gif" /></p>
+<h2 id="the-attempt">The Attempt</h2>
+<p>There's a better way to do this, but I first figured just triggering a redraw on scroll would do the trick. You can do so by adding the following line to your init.vim file:</p>
+<pre class="vimscript"><code>au WinScrolled * redraw!</code></pre>
+<p>As it turns out, the "WinScrolled" event <em>only</em> exists in neovim, so this command won't work in plain vim (see <code>:help autocmd-events</code> for the list of events in each program).</p>
+<h2 id="the-actual-solution">The Actual Solution</h2>
+<p>After installing COC and running a healthcheck, I realized that my TERM variable was set to 'xterm'. I'm not sure if I did that intentionally to run something or if it's just a legacy thing I left in from Debian's default bashrc, but all I had to do was change it:</p>
+<div class="sourceCode" id="cb2"><pre class="sourceCode bash"><code class="sourceCode bash"><span id="cb2-1"><a href="#cb2-1" aria-hidden="true"></a><span class="bu">export</span> <span class="va">TERM=</span><span class="st">&#39;tmux256-color&#39;</span></span></code></pre></div>
+<p><img src="/static/fixed.gif" /></p>
+<p>No more hacky autocommands!</p>
+<p>If I had the foresight to test the issue in xterm first, I probably would have seen it right away....</p>
