Zed is so great, I do wish they would focus just a little bit more on bringing the UI just a bit more up to parity with VS Code, I would switch full time.

What do you feel is missing from the UI?

I feel like the UI is not as smooth as VSCode. There is a slight lag when scrolling.

Wait what? Isn't a super fast UI one of their main selling points, what led them to write their own rendering in Rust?

...and now they lose to a web app?

There's a reason everyone writes their GUI apps in Electron nowadays. Browser have spent 30 years figuring out fast rendering, it's hard to beat that, even with native code.
