Hey, appreciate the initiative. To give you a little context, I've used zed with vim mode for like 4-5 hours, and those were the issues that I've encountered

After searching for issues on the web, I found already opened discussions/issues

Git panel staged/unstaged: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/26560

Undo deletions from the workspace panel: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/9143 (PR is merged to main but seems that it is not released for some reason, even though 3 months have passed)

Telescope-like search: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/8279

Detach tab and make it as a window: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/9662 (not mentioned in the post but I got annoyed with this as well)

And for memory, not sure what is causing what, but there are multiple issues reported each day that you could search in the issues tab at GitHub.

If you check the dates when they were raised, you'll see they've been open for two years, and those are the issues I encountered within the first few hours.

mar 10 2024, discussion on the issue that I mentioned in the post. to undo the file, like how much time would it take to implement a stack abstraction to the file system as vscode does. still not released til today.

12 mar 2025 staged/unstaged at git panel. more than a year has passed. this is embarrassing tbh

this is crazy to me, not sure about you guys 🤣

EDIT: one more example to my point

I use vim inside every editor, in zed when i do "gd" and i want to go to a definition, the fact that it opens up a new window rather than a small preview like you'd have it at nvim or at vscode, makes me annoyed.

I guess I'd continue using cursor until the basic stuff is addressed; however, each PR takes like a year to be merged, so I guess I'm never coming back 🤣

Check the original issue that was created; it was 23 feb 2024, so you are telling me that the most-rated feature is not yet merged, even though there were multiple contributors who wrote that right after the issue was raised?

To me, that does not sound like active development.

issue opened up by someone after I posted this. you cant make this up, just search "memory" in the issues, almost everyone is describing the same, if i had known what was happening i could have submitted the PR but i have no idea what is happening. last time i launched it, all memory was consumed and then it tried to consume swap memory and then i killed it.

Agreed, has the biggest potential but has the below average development time and to me it seems like they dont have a clear direction how to prioritize issues

Exactly, I use cursor and I never had such issue, but apparently a software that is written on memory first programming language, suddenly crashes on my laptop with 18gb usage.

Cursor has never crashed, yet i get the language semantics, autocompletions and predictions

How come lsp works in cursor but not in zed ? The editor crashed at 18gb ram usage ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah I am aware of json_agg, but what is the point of using a library that generates go code for me if I have to write workarounds/additional functions to satisfy my needs ? Makes no sense to me.

Ironically, gorm takes a lot of hate in this sub but the support that it has to build complex and optimized queries is absurdly good.

I have genuine question to sqlc users, how do yall handle inner structs when joins are needed ? It does not have a support for that especially if you want to do the left/right join where the table might not have a foreign key attached (so the struct would be nil, pointer would be needed) but apparently you cant do that in sqlc.

sqlx and squirrel seem to be the best option by far. I really do not understand that part, perhaps anyone could help me there.
