I've been using Zed for about a month and I'm very happy with performance the features. It guides you to setup only what you need, that was a problem with VSCode that would collect random plugins through time. I work regularly with Go, React, TypeScript, and I don't miss VSCode.
90% of the reason I use VSCode is the extensions. Zed doesn't have the ecosystem.
For VSCode I can get the official extension by the actual company doing $thing. With Zed I need to trust Random Person's extension that it doesn't have spyware or keyloggers in it.
"but but the company could!" yes, but they have a reputation to protect, releasing an official extension that leaks data is Very Bad. Random Person (if that's their real name) doesn't care, or does. I have no way of telling.
You're a control freak. But you can't control love. I'd suggest you let go. Perhaps the Universe is telling you that should help people, instead of trying to subdue them. Open your heart and let people in.
