Same. I tried zed but it doesn't come close.

Zed tries too hard to be magical, plus their license terms are not the best.

Before anyone asks any further. See the CLA [0] and the Privacy Policy [1].

I may see your first point, but how is GPL3 worse than a closed source software?

The code might be GPLv3, which is my favorite license BTW, but they have a "nice" CLA [0] and Privacy Policy [1] which doesn't inspire confidence.

I think CLA is a nuanced thing, since Eclipse also has one and didn't rugpull anyone ever, but their Privacy Policy states that the tool is chockful with telemetry and can collect any personal and non-personal data as they see fit.

When somebody tells that you can opt-out of this, I have a hard time believing that the switches are connected to anything.
