I am enjoying the Gram text editor (https://gram-editor.com), a “no further AI, no further bloat” hard fork of Zed. It’s quite pleasing to work with it. Installing support for various languages is a bumpy process, highly non-obvious the first time around. That seems to be the result of Gram ripping out Zed functionality that automatically and semi-silently installed a bunch of potentially unwelcome crap; Gram is quite aggressive about not installing anything without your permission. That part of the experience is not quite ready for prime time. I do very much approve of the goal! I trust the UX will catch up. The rest of it so far has been…good, awesome in fact.

  • @inthehands@hachyderm.io Huh. My last go at Gram, I threw it out in disgust because I couldn't get rid of the Tailwind plugin no matter how hard I tried. Perhaps it's time for another go.
