    Tried it today, didn’t expect much, but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at the speed and look and feel. I will give it a try for a while to see if I will switch from vscode permanently.

    Installed it, why not. Tried to run it.

    error opening [PathLikeWithPosition { path_like: “/home/me/test”, row: None, column: None }]: NoSupportedDeviceFound

    Then tried it in Xorg, and it runs normally. I guess it doesn’t run in Wayland?

    So, I gave it a short test drive. Observations:

    • UI is nice and minimal
    • Window splitting is useful
    • Key bindings don’t seem to do anything
    • Command palette commands don’t seem to do anything
    • Editor appears to crash if I switch to a virtual terminal then back to Xorg

    Suspect it’s shooting to be something like sublime text. Cool, but seems like there’s a lot of work to be done.
