← Back to context Comment by fastball 4 days ago What interests you about Zed that is not already covered by Sublime? 1 comment fastball Reply biztos 3 days ago For me, it's always interesting to try out new editors, and I've been a little frustrated with Sublime lately.Upsides of Zed (for me, I think):* Built-in AI vibecodery, which I think is going to be an unavoidable part of the job very soon.* More IDE features while still being primarily an Editor.* Extensions in Rust (if I'm gonna suffer, might as well learn some Rust).* Open source.Downsides vs Sublime:* Missing some languages I use.* Business model, arguably, because $42M in VC "is what it is."
