    Attempted multiple times to use zed. Gave up.

    I still want to. I will give it another try when I am free.

    But the whole environment has something that feels "invasion of privacy". Maybe its me.

    I want an installation where typing latency must be invisible, literal invisible to the eye. Heard zed is great at that.

    But I don't want my sensitive code to be put in a state that might lead it to exist in a cloud environment without my explicit permission.

    Besides, the concept is good. Many a times I have wanted this exact feature - where what happens between commits can in principle be snapshoted with full checkout to any point - without of course any conscious effort from my side.
