Hi, I have set up my neovim config listchars like so:

vim.opt.listchars = { tab = "│ ", trail = "·", precedes = "<", extends = ">", nbsp = "○" }

But for empty lines between the indentations there are these awful holes left.

I used to use intent-blankline.nvim but I want to try to tone down my plugin usage, and I pretty much used it only to fix this issue, could somebody help me?

Well, it's not an issue or a bug. It's a logical way to work. When you create a newline to space some code, there is not tab char on it. So (neo)vim just show an empty line (no tab list char)

These are actually important. The "holes" show you that there is no (spurious) whitespace on that line.
