@aks GAHH finally there's someone else online as angry as I am at Zed's weird terms and conditions. (I wish he would have mentioned the CLA as well)

https://gram.liten.app/terms/

Zed is "open source" with a backdoor for the Zed Industries company to take full control if they want to.

Terms of use and open source

My problem with end user license agreements

@aks I doubt this fork is going to have any traction because the Zed team is really good at getting third party contributions despite their CLA. They haven't pissed off their community (yet) and I'm afraid it will be too late by the time they do.

@ryanabx i think it'll become its own entity, likely somewhat forgotten but if people like it, it might catch on

"•I think AI integration in a code editor is a bad feature.

AI makes me angry.

Anger motivates me."

Love it already

@Sparkle @aks worrying from the outset that zed based their entire business model around AI. I'll be trying Gram.

@aks i've been writing html with fucking gedit for a while because i decided zed was too... like... focused on slop rather than making obvious improvements to what was almost a nice text editor to use

writing code with syntax highlighting off did actually help me develop a better sense of how to write readable code. so there was a benefit to this phase.

every update was SLOP GENERATOR #1230809124 FIXED and not "misclicking on a file that isn't a valid text file no longer opens a little popup that forces you to use the Fucking mouse to close it"
