I was very surprised to find a "forum" integrated in Zed when I first opened it. But to be honest, it is not something I ever felt the need for and overall I don't like having this in my text editor. So far it never got in my way and that's a good thing, I hope it stays that way :)

This looks more like a collab note-taking app. Don't know about code since i don't code anymore inside an editor but for collab things who knows

Zed is lovely and I hope it becomes super successful but this kind of mass collaboration might be ok for meeting minutes... maybe. But thinking of it for coding it gives me shingles. Code by mass live committee. Yikes.

I have been trying to figure out how this works in concert with Git (or SCM in general). Is one of the developers in the session merely responsible for it?

It's just pair programming when you're doing it on code so if you can bear pair programming you'll be fine. Personally, I hate it.

I mean, you have the same "problem" when peer coding in person. Whoever is officially working on the fix will commit it. I've helped devs get around a hump for ages, you don't get "credit" for all the work you do. It's why I hate most ticketing systems (when management starts to ask why your tasks fell behind), they don't let you correctly track multiple people when they work together.

Actively programming in pairs (or more) is also not for me. Reviewing work async is great IMO though.
