@veronica Yeah agreed! The Electron bloat is bad, but amazingly enough better than the Java JVM in Eclipse. I do love the snappiness of Zed, but is fairly annoyed by its AI embracing.

@veronica I come from Emacs (which was fine for C, PHP and Python stuff 10+ years ago). Then had a longer flirt with Eclipse as I got into C++ before landing on vscodium. Both of them with Emacs "mode" enabled. The "Awesome Emacs" addon is definitely one of the best ones.

I do have Zed high up on the list to check out for real. But,yeah, it's really hard to switch... So much emotions attached to the editor ...

@veronica you're aware of the neovim controversies? Maintainer didn't feel any urge to remove DHHs praise of neovim and was even fairly condescending to people who asked for removing it.
