Every time I successfully login to a remote server using ssh, the zsh terminal would stuck unless I do a Ctrl+C. There’s no problem with the ssh login. It also requires three Ctrl+C after I type exit for it to really exit the ssh connection every time.
To see if anything’s wrong with ~/.zshenv or ~/.zshrc, I commented out all of their content and added echo "End of ~/.zshenv" at the end of ~/.zshenv, and echo "End of ~/.zshrc" at the end of ~/.zshrc, the output of is as following:

End of ~/.zshrc
And then it’s stuck until a Ctrl+C is sent.
It does seem that ~/.zshenv and ~/.zshrc are finished executing but still somehow get stuck after that. So the solution to this question does not apply.
I also found out that ZDOTDIR and USER_ZDOTDIR are both empty variables after Ctrl+C, even though the ~/.zshenv and ~/.zshrc are executed. Tried in vscode, and the problem persists. But ZDOTDIR, USER_ZDOTDIR, and VSCODE_ZDOTDIR are home directory in vscode. I’m in desperate need of any suggestions that might help solving this issue! Appreciate it!
