Switched to Zed recently, after finding out it's basically flawless on Linux now (it was pretty bad initially) and after about 20 minutes uninstalled vscodium for good.
It's a very solid editor and one less electron thing on my system.

I like Zed as a concept. Rapid af, vim bindings built in, lean stuff.

But I just can't go back to vim after enjoying helix bindings. They're too good.

Helix is bae, the best if both worlds, of both Emacs and Vim.

I've known Zed for almost a year now, but it still lacks a lot of what VS Code offers. Especially when it comes to customization.

Oh, cool. I didn't know about this one.

Trying Zed now on the eternal quest of eventually replacing emacs...

Sounds like a rash decision.
