I tried it briefly. I like the idea of an alternative to VS code, that's not some inefficient javascript electron app. But the focus of zed seems to be on collaboration in cloud and also pushing LLM tools. That's not what I'm looking for. I disliked that it was impossible to hide the "log in to github" button (I don't want to log into an editor). Irked me the wrong way.

It drives me nuts that there's no way to close a folder once you opened it. There's no way to just edit a file without making it a "project". In my mind that's a weird design decision (which is probably rooted in weird fundamental ideas) and gives me no warm & fuzzy feeling about what direction it will take in the future.
That's not too weird, until IntelliJ added its lite editor, it was the same way for many years.
i have no reason to switch from vim to anything else.
Helix for a better default config. But you’ve probably already set up vim the way you like it.
