From Neovim to Zed: A 15-Year Vim Veteran's Editor Migration

A seasoned developer, after 15 years with Vim/Neovim, switched to the new editor Zed due to frustration with complex configurations and plugin management, and a desire for native LLM integration. Zed's solid Vim mode, simple JSON configuration, powerful LLM integration (called "Assistant"), and blazing-fast speed impressed him, prompting a temporary farewell to his long-time companion, Neovim. While it's an experiment, his initial impressions are positive, hinting at a possible new era for code editors.
