Yes 100%. Plain text editing, especially with any sort of highlighting or parsing, is hard. But I'm also struggling to think of a common and modern "text editor" with high latency like that. When I think "text editor" I think of something only capable of saving and loading plain text, with some plugin support. Stock VSCode is exceptional at this. So is neovim. So is Microsoft Notepad. So is Sublime Text. So is Nova.app. He has SOME editor in mind, I'm just curious what it is.
