Inlay hints are working well on my end!
The only issue I seem to be having is when the server doesn't support inlay
hints, and I have " (add-hook 'eglot-managed-mode-hook
#'eglot-inlay-hints-mode)" in my config.

It keeps erroring in this case and the connection to the lsp server seems
to terminate in some cases. In any case it causes interference with other
things, like completion which can stop working.

You can try it with pylsp, and add "(add-hook 'eglot-managed-mode-hook
#'eglot-inlay-hints-mode)" to your config. Trying to write a simple main
function will show issues.

For example this python code:

def main():
    pass
