Zed competes mostly against Visual Studio Code. Not against Jetbrains.

I do love jetbrains for its nice-to-have features (eg highlight a few lines in the middle of a spaghetti function -> right click -> extract to new function) and was paying for it out of my own pocket for several years; but had to switch to vscode for a couple of required features that jetbrains was missing (remote dev over ssh, and devcontainers); and now switched to zed for being "like vscode but faster"

Zed can "extract function" for Rust code. I guess, it depends on the language server you use? Since vscode and zed use the same there is not distinction between them.

Maybe, but I switched from IntelliJ to Zed. And eventually stopped paying for Jetbrains products.
