I think many people don't know or underestimate Zed. Native, fast, with extensions, with Vim mode support.

And sadly it is also not accessible to screen readers. VS Code for all its flaws is really, really good for screen reader accessibility. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that it's not only one of the most accessible code editors we have, but one of the most accessible electron apps overall. So losing it to this Microsoft stuff would be a huge deal to anyone who relies on screen reader or accessibility tools. :(
The reason I didn't explore Zed is their for profit model.
There might be awesome people and work behind it now, but I've already been burned enough times by rug pulls and shittyfication. I don't want to be planning another move 5 years from now.
Or don't want. I don't want an AI infected editor.
Zed is much less AI-infected than VSCode. In fact, in Zed there’s a single button to disable all AI features.
but doing that would you not end up with less than vscode?
