I want this in Warp. It's a solid terminal, but Claude Code is so good that I don't need my terminal trying to do something similar without me asking it to.
If you want this for Warp, you know where to find xterm, iTerm2, Kitty, etc.

#122Love this. Prefer deciding feature by feature basis, but in a world where everyone is ramming AI down your throat with a jackhammer and compulsory ToS this mindset is welcome
Re: You can now disable all AI features in Zed
#123Maybe this is a pedantic nitpick, but I do wish the feature was "disable_llm" or similar.
The term AI is so poorly specified today, and while I don't want my editor using LLMs to predict my next keystroke I do still like the more basic auto complete features.

#124Earlier quoted context omitted.
I listened to a podcast interview with one of the cofounders of zed. One of the revealing things is that he went on and on about how important latency was and how they had to do their own rendering because of the problems they ran into with electron. He also admits that he never used vim, which already has imperceptible latency relative to the terminal emulator, which has already largely solved the text rendering pro…
Not everyone wants to use a terminal editor and of those people, not everyone wants to use vscode.
Learning a terminal editor will save your ass at 3am when production goes down. No joke.

#125My problem with AI in Zed is not that it's there, but that it feels like it's always behind in AI code editor paradigms. They were pretty late to the party to add edit predictions, and their agent UX is pretty behind the game. Recently, Cursor added background agents which I feel is a game changer and I now feel it's a deal breaker when choosing an editor. It makes me wonder if choosing to build their own GUI framewo…
I haven't used background tasks/agents in cursor. Could you provide an example for stuff that you use it for?
This week, I remember giving it these tasks:
- Upgrade our NodeJS version because it just got deprecated
- Upgrade our linter to the newest version, add a new rule, and fix all instances of that rule in our code
- Make minor changes to our UI
- Fix small bugs that I know how to fix, and can tell it exactly what to do
The main pain point they're solving for me is that I have many small tasks I need to do. Coding them isn't the main bottleneck, but creating a new branch and then creating a new PR is the main bottleneck for me. With cursor specifically, I don't even have to check out the branch locally to verify the code.
For any significant work, I'd rather manually do it in editor.
Re: You can now disable all AI features in Zed
#126Zed seems really nice, and the usability has come a really long way in the last couple of months. That being said, I have one issue, and I hesitate to even bring it up because it seems so shallow: I hate all the themes! They all look so ugly and amateur. I know this is a really trivial thing, it's like complaining I don't like Python because it uses whitespace for indent or something, but I just can't get over it. VS…
I like Nord Dark because it uses only 3 colours. It’s available as an extension.
Re: You can now disable all AI features in Zed
#127Sadly, I came back to using VS Code recently. There's a lot to like in Zed but imo that decision to write their own rendering framework is unfortunate, because of ridiculous problems in Linux still not resolved like poor font rendering, especially on low-DPI screens, or visible lags of UI which is being developed to be blazingly fast. So far, VS Code is faster for me.
I use it on Linux and think it's great. My laptop has a screen with some crazy-high DPI and a monitor which doesn't. Changing the font sizes in settings to suit has never left me with a poorly rendered view.

#128Re: You can now disable all AI features in Zed
#129The thing that's so sticky for me with JetBrains IDEs is their run configurations. Being able to configure all of the environment variables etc. for the actual code that I need to run, especially when connecting to a debugger or tests integrated with the IDE. I haven't seen anyone else complain about this so I figure I must be missing something. Does Zed let you set up run configurations like this? If not, how do use…

Re: You can now disable all AI features in Zed
#130I went from VS Code to Cursor, then got frustrated with Cursor breaking keybindings and other things, tried to go back to VS Code but missed the superior tab completion. Then I gave Zed a long hard try, but after over a month of daily usage I went back to Cursor again, just for the tab completion quality. I don't use any of the chat or agent features, but for me Cursor's tab completion is a step forward in work effic…
What kind of configuration did you use for tab completion? Did you try hooking up different LLMs?
I paid for a subscription to both cursor and zed, without configuring any different LLMs or other options as far as I recall.
