Zed seems like its gotten a lot of buzz on HN, and its great to see new players in the space. For those who have used it, what are some of the killer features?
No killer features, just nice ergonomics and speed out of the box. I use it as my Vim replacement.

Its killer feature seems to be speed. Otherwise I dont see much of a reason to use it over VS Code.
"vim_mode": true,
Fortunately docs go into better detail, https://zed.dev/docs/linux
I'm on Debian anyway so who am I kidding expecting this to be in apt :D

For me the "killer feature" is a graphical editor (like VSCode or the Jet Brains editors) but with performance more like vim. I'm also very much enjoying the modal editing, which VSCode lacks.
The VSCode Vim plugin works great:

Do you find it to be faster than vim/neovim?
Really dislike the one line installer. How is it installing? Flatpak? Adding an apt repo? Manual install? Fortunately docs go into better detail, https://zed.dev/docs/linux I'm on Debian anyway so who am I kidding expecting this to be in apt :D
