You can disable all AI stuff in Zed with a single disable_ai: true setting. Still an awesome editor without any of the AI.

  1. That should be on by default.
  2. It has no features that Xed doesn't have that I use and takes up more system resources (it's noticeably slower).
  3. It's far more confusing in its design with the project-pane thing which keeps constantly closing between reboots, and it has no recent-files menu section, which I rely on a lot (and if there is a plugin for this, I shouldn't need a plugin for such a common feature).

I've made my decision for the time being. I am aware of Zed and can always change in the future should the need arise, but Kate frankly looked better, anyway.

I think you're mixing Zed and Kate in your comment and is kinda confusing hahaha

Sorry, edited; I actually meant Xed, the stock text editor in Mint. It's proving to ve good enough when paired with Meld via Nemo Compare!
