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?

Their font rendering looks awful on non-high dpi displays, and the devs don't seem to care at all. https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/7992

While this is probably annoying, I have to imagine that non-hidpi displays are becoming rarer and rarer. It's probably not a great idea to spend a lot of work on a feature that will only ever see declining use.

It's not rare at all. It's more common than not for people developing on monitors.

That's wild to me. That's something I don't think I can ever go back to at this point.

Do you use macOS? Fonts look great on Linux with hinting and subpixel rendering at 1440p. I could never use macOS with such a setup.
