Zed, a collaborative code editor, is now open sour...
Heard of Helix? It's a bit more Vim to Zed's VSCode, but it's open source and Rust too! It also comes with rust-analyzer and tree-sitter included.

Helix is awesome, fast, elegant and works everywhere. I wonder what unique selling points Zed has that could motivate me to switch?

Helix doesn't have a plugin system:

Personally I love the no plugins. It keeps the core editor competitive and easy to set up.

Unfortunately Helix is movement first while Vim is command first. This makes a big difference if you are used to Vim binding
