Well, I’ve given it about a month, but I don’t think I can deal with how unfinished zed is as a daily editor. Gonna have to find something else. Is now the time for me to finally get into vim or emacs ?

(Probably not, I do like a desktop UI and use the mouse a lot)

@hlame Or helix editor. I find it much nicer to work with than vim. Of course it's still keyboard focussed.

This article is good on what is different about it https://phaazon.net/blog/more-hindsight-vim-helix-kakoune

@joel I’d discounted it as being vim, but weird. And given I already thought vim was weird I thought it might be too much. Were you a vim user before you became a helix user?
@hlame I was. Yes. But I think it is less weird than vim.
