    I’m probably more of a git noob than you, but I do usually use the cli. I figured if I’m going to give a gui editor an honest shake I should try to do things the inbuilt, gui, way. And more to the point, I do appreciate a good user interface with information at a glance or click instead of having to type out a command each time.

    Very first impressions since I literally just downloaded before writing this, and haven’t read the manual, I may change my mind with more experience.

    • It’s incredibly snappy, to my eyes as fast as Helix.
    • A lot of stuff that took me a while to figure out in VS Code was immediately obvious. How to toggle inlay hints for Rust? Parameter Icon > Inlay Hints (with the keyboard shortcut there for easy toggling).
    • Interactive is generally intuitive because it seems pretty permissive. Tab vs Enter to autocomplete? Either! ctrl-shift-Z vs ctrl-Y to redo? Same thing!
    • After being so used to Helix I often reach for keybinds that don’t exist. I might have to learn Vim keybinds because I’m definitely going to keep trying Zed.
    • Not sure how I feel about what seems to be an inline discord-like chat/voice-call feature.

    Going to check out if there’s git integration, because I couldn’t easily find it.

    Proton Drive is online-only so I’m not sure what you’re asking here. Are you asking if you can download files?

    The Google Drive app lets you save a file locally so that you can view it offline. I mean under the hood it is just downloading and syncing, but it’s a lot nicer than having to manage the files you want to view offline yourself.

    That’s a big negative.

    Why? Desktop file backup seems like a pretty similar feature to mobile photo backup (which seems to be working for me).

    Edit: also looking at some videos of the Windows client, folder syncing seems to be possible. Just not yet on Linux. Still not sure why it would be bad.
