Suppose someone were looking for a modern code editor that's eminently scriptable, non-modal in the vim sense, open source, Linux compatible, isn't GNU Emacs specifically, and, most importantly of all, doesn't spend core developer focus on LLM support. What would their options look like, if any?

(Usual reply guy disclaimer: please don't respond with anything that doesn't meet every criterion listed above, even if it's your favourite editor. Thanks.)

This toot certainly not brought to you by the 15 minutes I spent disabling new "AI chat" features after a VSCodium upgrade this morning. 🤬
To conclude this thread,
Honourable mention to https://lap.dev/lapce/ though, it's not remotely scriptable enough for this former Emacs cult member, but it's very slick in a Zed without the faff kind of way.

@bodil i tried lapce once it didnt do it for me im stuck on zedless right now until i write my own editor eventually 😭
@bodil I go down these rabbit holes regularly and still end up back in emacs and my weird config
@bodil if only there existed a standard editor 🤔
@wingo One can dream.

@bodil noooooo

(but   )

@bodil I keep coming to that conclusion every time I think about text editors too 😭
@bodil how‘s your fedi client going, btw?
@flq It's progressing, and it's created a lot of side effects that would come in handy for building an editor too… 🤔
@bodil if you have steps, please share! Thank you!
@fluidlogic It was only one very obvious setting in the end, "disable agents" or some such, I just spent 15 minutes making sure, lol.
