• hiplot , just a little big
• Keras-tuner (needs a bit more activity)
• Spyder-4 looks ok now: in limbo for Use stdio instead of tcp by default to communicate to LSP servers spyder-ide/spyder#10021 , but seems no more an issue with 4.1.0, supports jedi-0.15.2 (switched immediately after 4.1.0), will support jedi-0.16 soon... patching to authorize fresher version of PyQt+Jedi
