Zed is a modern open-source code editor, built from the ground up in Rust with a GPU-accelerated renderer.

There ought to be a rule that posts about software releases have to say what it is.

I am BEGGING for any editor other than VSCode to have decent remote development. I want to go open source but everything I’ve tried (remote-nvim, distant, tramp, vscodium, etc.) just doesn’t cut it.

Apparently Lapce has remote development as its core feature. But I only (re?)learned of it today…

How didn’t tramp work out for you?

What in hell is remote development? You mean openssh and vim, right?

built from the ground up with rust. Why the fuck is that the first and usually only (non-)feature to mention in any project written in rust? Who the fuck cares?

I fucking hate the rust cult.

I care because I know the values of those programmers in a narrow scope and won’t be as annoyed when I inevitably have to go debug the rust code instead of C.

However, that values statement was challenged by automatic binary downloads without user confirmation.

Luckily the fix is already in progress, but its concerning it was ever implemented.

Interesting project, how ever it will be hard to compete with existing editors and its plugin eco-systems.

I don’t think so. The guys who write the plugins are the cracks and the cracks will use zed.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
  • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
