    Some people tried to get me into Zed as well, and that was sure not a fun experience seeing how heavily pro-AI it was. I literally ended up just returning to the built-in Zed.

      You can disable all AI stuff in Zed with a single disable_ai: true setting. Still an awesome editor without any of the AI.

        1. That should be on by default.
        2. It has no features that Xed doesn’t have that I use and takes up more system resources (it’s noticeably slower).
        3. It’s far more confusing in its design with the project-pane thing which keeps constantly closing between reboots, and it has no recent-files menu section, which I rely on a lot (and if there is a plugin for this, I shouldn’t need a plugin for such a common feature).

        I’ve made my decision for the time being. I am aware of Zed and can always change in the future should the need arise, but Kate frankly looked better, anyway.

          I think you’re mixing Zed and Kate in your comment and is kinda confusing hahaha

            Sorry, edited; I actually meant Xed, the stock text editor in Mint. It’s proving to ve good enough when paired with Meld via Nemo Compare!
