I've been attempting to use Zed as a VSCode replacement but between the lack of bitmap font support (Criminal in an alleged code editor), and the weird UI choices, it's been hard. I want to love it, but what is "performance" if I have to spend more time working around the UI and lack of features from extensions. Strangest issue I've encountered is the colours being completely wrong when using Wayland.. colours are perfect when ran with Xwayland. I'll give it a plus though for native transparency for the background. Much nicer than having to make the entire window transparent, including the foreground text like with VSCode.
Terminus. I personally love it. There's a TTF version called Terminess that includes the original bitmaps for certain sizes, and uses the more blurry style font for sizes the original didn't have. You can use it with certain programs like VSCode that don't allow you to select bitmap fonts, yet actually support them.
