What I really like is that all code links it outputs, open a pane at that line.

At this point I'm happy when things don't break randomly. However, it seems I lost an ACP session today and I'm not sure it's my own fault. Could be Zed playing tricks.
my favorite ux goof right now is the fastmode switch button right next to the stop button and how much space it all takes up.

#305Zed should focus on basics. When it focuses on basics Zed is good. https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/54150 failing to show newly created files and declining to provide a refresh button, instead adding a polling backend, breaks Zed on WSL. Why a new version control system? Why not git, jj, or another existing system?
We deal with it, but even with options like jj, it always feels like you're settling. Git works, and we are familiar with it, but is it much more than that? Our baseline expectation should be higher.

#306Why develop this when the core editor is almost unusable? On Linux wayland, copypaste is broken, the file manager is laggy and snippets do not trigger before the heavy hint logic is done. This is just on top of my head, the list is long
Zed is my daily driver and I'm pretty happy with it. I often switch over to other editors to do things Zed can't, but it's rarer than you'd think and really isn't that much of a hassle.

#307Of course it's just marketing until we get an actual product, but I for one look forward to seeing this stuff in action.

Anytime a company/group announces some random new project now, I tend to immediately suspect over-reliance on AI. From what I’ve seen, AI addiction frequently manifests as an explosion in scope, possibly because LLMs make so much initial “progress” on new projects which you can then demo and have resource allocators extrapolate to some glorious shipping version. But then you have to go back & clean up the slop, progr…
God it’s so tiring reading this bullshit framing that you people constantly regurgitate.
The vast majority of people don't like using poorly made things, especially when it is forced upon them against their will.

#309> Every change is linked to the agent conversation that produced it A total nightmare and imo every dev should push back using this stuff. You'd otherwise have management brag about you not being a good communicator with the ai agent, the same management that have no idea how to steer these tools. I really like Zed the editor, I'm not sure I like the path they getting into
These sort of paper trails are for developers not management though, does your manager open all your commits and start commenting on them? If so, maybe apply somewhere else.
The neat thing is that they thing decide to make your life miserable based on their made up findings!

They aren't proposing to replace git though. They are just attempting to make it simpler for developers to follow changes applied by an LLM in an ergonomic fashion. Not saying it will work well but I'm happy to see someone trying a new approach here.
I don't want someone "to make it simpler for developers to follow changes applied by an LLM in an ergonomic fashion". I want a text editor. I want "VScode without the bullshit". That's what I thought they were building.
