As soon as I start typing anything, three dots show up at the top of the editor screen, which "shifts" my code below one string. How can I turn off this feature, which seems to be useless?

svet's answer to disable recent changes in VS Code settings didn't quite remove the inline GitLens comments for me, but disabling authors as well did:
Searching for gitlens recent change

Searching for gitlens authors

Before:
After:
Note that hovering over the selected line's GitLens comment to show the popup still works:

Turn off (uncheck) only Gitlens › CodeLens › RecentChange
and keep the rest of the CodeLens functionality:
The image below shows what Gitlens › CodeLens › RecentChange
contols. The text "Eric Amondio, 3 minutes ago | 1 author (Eric Amondio)" will be hidden if the option is turned off.
Note: Even though the answer provided by kschnack will also fix the problem, you should turn off only the specific option and not the whole Gitlens › CodeLens functionality.

I toggled off the Code Lens option in the GitLens settings - that did the job
