It is not my project.

I was looking for a lite version of Zed IDE without AI integrations, collab feature, telemetry etc and suddenly found it ^_^

I didn't test it excessively yet, but definitely give a try.

If you already tried it, please share your opinions.

I’ve kept my eye on this, not due to the AI, but because Zed is a scumbag organization that thinks mandatory opt-out arbitration is okay, because they don’t think their users should have rights. You of course don’t have to sign in but it still indicates they are an evil organization. Alas, I just keep on being super happy with Neovim so I don’t use it.

    I tried their editor a few times and found it a bit hard to get used to coming from VS Code. The thing that sank the ship for me honestly was when I found out that they don't support PDF previews in the editor. Given that I use VS Code to also write LaTeX documents, that is an essential feature for me that they seemed very opinionated about not including based on the issues I've seen on their git

    Sooo evil, making a great editor available completely for free that you don't have to use at all. How dare they? Practically Hitler!

    The entitlement is off the scale...

    What the hell are you on about? I don't think I'm entitled to use their editor, hence as I said, not doing so. But I do think I'm entitled to my right to trial provided by a public institution with public accountability rather than a private organization with no accountability and no right to appeal.

    You don't have to be comparing something to Hitler to call it evil, which requiring people opt-out of giving up rights is. But hey... Stans gonna Stan.
