- dddw 4mo agoIf you like vs. but not M$. Use VsCodium. I did, but now preffer zed, which replaced my use of vscodium and sublimetext in 1 swoop.
- ZeroCool2u 4mo agoZed is excellent. I know it's weird, but the last thing holding me back is being able to have a browser based Zed session the same as VSCode.
- Quothling 4mo agoI heard that Zed came with a lot of integrated AI and team sharing features that phone home, so that's an issue for anyone working with stuff like NIS2 compliance. Not that VSCode isn't a compliance nightmare as well.
- arianvanp 4mo agoZed downloads random binaries on startup without any permissions prompts. No thanks.
- ffemac 4mo agoI looked into Zed because popular harness (OpenCode/KiloCode) just random downloads npm packages in the background and didn't tell you. But then I found out reports of Zed doing the same. Why we can't have nice things?
- throwaway041207 4mo agoZed is nice, but the project wide search (sidebar based) in VS Code and diff viewer in VS Code are still better IMO and unfortunately since I no longer code, those are my most used features of an editor. Still using it instead of VS Code but I sure wish it improved those views.
- karimf 4mo agoI've been using Zed for a few weeks now and these two are also my main complaints as well.
