Hard to look at slower editors after sublime speed and hyper speed from zed rust

[Alifatisk]

You can't compare Zed with Vscode and it's cousins. I've used Zed myself and it is still very lacking, limited extensions.

Zed only has syntax highlighting and an ai assistant, but that's it. Even though Vscode (and the rest) is still also considered a text editor and not a IDE, they have by far way more features.

Sure, you get super duper high speed, but at what cost?

[kstrauser]

Zed has good LSP support for lots of languages. It’s not only syntax highlighting and AI.

Fair point are there rust or cpp based ides in parity with vs code to compare?

I've tried Zed and Ghostty and I just don't really get the speed thing. Typing latency is extremely unnoticeable in VS Code/Cursor and other Electron apps for me.

[nurumaik]

For me it's very noticeable. Typing, invoking lsp actions, opening terminal panel, switching between files. Everything feels much much faster. Switched to zed several months ago and never looked back

What's Ghostty
