I'll be watching this one. It looks nice. Please come to Linux. I do loves me my vim. I did not like setting it up as much as I thought I would to be an IDE. I'm sorry I was mean Zed.

Yes, that was mean, because nobody is able to make another editor as powerful as vim.

Time will tell for sure, but helix is looking really good and once they have support for plugins I'm rather sure it will be a very, very powerful editor.

I don't think helix will ever catch up to a lot of vims lesser know features of which there are a lot. I think that's by design as well, I think that helix wants to have a smaller surface area than vim and for a lot of people that will be the right choice. I personaly use ex-commands for example, or the quickfixlist fairly often so for me I have a hard time imagining helix not feeling like a step down power-wise (as nice as multiple cursors are).

VSCode has way more features than Vim. Including the ability to run Vim inside the IDE. Or Emacs.

Sais no-one that knows vim, thou it have a vi-like mode that is missing most advanced vi-trixs.
