I used this setup a lot myself and it worked great except that name completions, intellisense didn't work as expected.

You might need to install all the language servers and extensions on the remote host too. Typically VS code realizes they're missing and prompts to install them. But if there's an issue you might need to dig around and see why it can't install the LSP services there (perhaps you don't have permission or access to get them).
