Why is zed so popular? What am I missing? Looks like just any other editor...

    It's really fast, has nice vim keybindings and has the potential to be a great open source VSCode alternative.

    I don't use it yet since it doesn't have a built in Python debugger but I've been watching it closely. I really want to switch to it someday soon

    VSCode (or the base app used by it) is open source (see: VSCodium). It has a similar relationship to Chrome and its base Chromium, where assets and tweaks are added to brand the product. You may have been trying to say "a great open source, VSCode alternative" and I misunderstood. Just commenting to remove ambiguity.
