I hope this leads to Zed being ported to other platforms (Linux, please!)
Hey! Engineer at Zed here. Linux port is on our roadmap. Hopefully we'll get it done this year!

#382Re: Zed, a collaborative code editor, is now open source
#383I'm generally a big fan of zed and have been using it for 60%ish of my dev time for 6 months or so. A couple of nice things to note: - It really is remarkably responsive,and makes one really notice how UNresponsive everything else is. I have reasonably fast machines, so we're not talking about the difference between 5ms typing lag and 500ms, but it's still pretty surprising. VSCode never felt slow on my macs until I…
I’m really picky about my tools in general and latency in particular, and I give Zed a spin from time to time, it’s sweet. Clean, minimal design aesthetic, tree-sitter, tight code, it’s a nice bit of work and I dig it a lot. But emacs 29 with the right flags and a tuned GC (no one does this! it’s got a heap-size from the 80s!) is just as snappy and has more amazing packages than VSCode. There’s a market for people wh…

#384I was excited, but then I saw it was Mac only. Weird choice, most programmers will never even look at this editor.
Most programmers I know prefer macOS above all other. Is it different where you’re from?

#385Earlier quoted context omitted.
How do you get a reasonably fancy Emacs to start up/open files quickly? Every time I try to get into EMacs after adding a few packages it becomes painfully slow to open a file for editing. Then I try to understand Emacs server, then I fail / give up and go back to vim.
Open it at 8am, close it at 8pm

It starts up with ~77 packages in half a second.
This is my config.

how to you use ollama with vscode? some links/ details would help me a lot!
I work for a pretty conservative company re: GAI, and the ollama + continue combo made it through legal.
