Installed it, why not. Tried to run it.

error opening [PathLikeWithPosition { path_like: "/home/me/test", row: None, column: None }]: NoSupportedDeviceFound

Then tried it in Xorg, and it runs normally. I guess it doesn't run in Wayland?

...

So, I gave it a short test drive. Observations:

  • UI is nice and minimal
  • Window splitting is useful
  • Key bindings don't seem to do anything
  • Command palette commands don't seem to do anything
  • Editor appears to crash if I switch to a virtual terminal then back to Xorg

Suspect it's shooting to be something like sublime text. Cool, but seems like there's a lot of work to be done.

I'm also running it smoothly on Wayland+nvidia. Pacman install btw.

Most key bindings work ime. All commands I've tried in the past few days work fine too, though I've missed things especially for Python development. For Rust it is very much usable today I'd say.

I'm running it on Wayland + Nvidia (god help me) and it works great, no crashes whatsoever. No idea what's going on on your end. I haven't tried using any custom keybindings or the command palette, so I'm not sure if those work.

Hm, interesting, I'm simply not sure then. Oh, well. Maybe I'll try it again another day. For now I'm content with emacs.
