"So much hype" being defined as "the ocassional release announcement HN post now and then", most of which could be submitted by Zed themselves?
And "yet another editor" as in implying that all editors edit, so Vim or Emacs or VSCode or Zed or whatever shouldn't matter, as none brings anything different/new to the table?
If we all stuck to the first thing that worked and searched for no improvements whatsoever, we'd all be riding horses.
I'm still riding text-mode vim over ssh, and it's very fast and suits me just fine. If I get frisky, I can always go check out the latest plugins.
