From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I was so happy about this! Been using it on my work MacBook and have been excited to use it on my main laptop!

Zed seems cool, but not much better than other options. I am still kind of thrown off by the immediate GH/CoPilot integration. Am I the an old man left in the caves of feeling that I don't need the AI help?

They'll probably dial it back once the hype settles

I tried saving to a file that required root and it didn't give any prompt to enter the password. On VSCodium normally if you are trying to write to a file that requires sudo then it prompts you.

Is there a way to save to root files with Zed?

Great another editor. Now what we need is a good PS alternative so we can all move away from Windows.
