So you'll feel right at home using the same shortcuts. Missing features for me: Git, seeing your git changes visually, a diff, staging unstaging etc the basic like vscode had. Seeing your current branc name Stuff like git blame file icon (there are file icons atm but they are again super minimal an a bit too minimal for me, I want some more color so I can easily see what kind of file it is.) If they would add at least the above features, I will probably switch from vscode.

I'm sorry, vi/vim is easy to learn. just remember it has two modes: command and insert. esc to get back to command mode. learn a few commands, like i for insert, a for append and o to open a new line. then over time added a few more as you go. . (dot) to repeat the last edit command, which is mind blowingly useful

I really liked Zed on macOS, now I really want it on Windows (my main machine)

I never thought I would see the day when you would need a badass cpu with a bunch of cores and a high end gpu and monitor - just to run a *text editor*. And that programmers would praise this design. While the text editor is eating up that many resources, what's left to run the compiler? It doesn't even have any extensions, which vim and emacs have a ton of. If you don't like that, there are plenty of gui IDEs that are free and open source and use practically no resources, while being fully extensible. So that you can use those cores as they were meant to be used.

programming is all about building super specific features, I feel like programmers can never truly be replaced, because you need someone to think of those specific things, since we can't really trust the ai todo what we want or the correct thing 100%. and software engineering isn't all about writing code, there are other things you need to do and think of, things like system design, setting up deployments but the best part is upgrading your code of debugging to find bugs and errors.

If ai can become advanced enough to be able to refactor my code and upgrade the codebase, handle compatibility issues and upgrade an angular 12 to angular 17. I will be super happy.
