Pretty confident in my solve. The only ones I didn’t get myself were 20-down, 29-down (obvious in retrospect), and 21-across (inferred the word, but didn’t know the tool).

I’m probably more of a git noob than you, but I do usually use the cli. I figured if I’m going to give a gui editor an honest shake I should try to do things the inbuilt, gui, way. And more to the point, I do appreciate a good user interface with information at a glance or click instead of having to type out a command each time.

Very first impressions since I literally just downloaded before writing this, and haven’t read the manual, I may change my mind with more experience.

• It’s incredibly snappy, to my eyes as fast as Helix.
• A lot of stuff that took me a while to figure out in VS Code was immediately obvious. How to toggle inlay hints for Rust? Parameter Icon > Inlay Hints (with the keyboard shortcut there for easy toggling).
• Interactive is generally intuitive because it seems pretty permissive. Tab vs Enter to autocomplete? Either! ctrl-shift-Z vs ctrl-Y to redo? Same thing!
• After being so used to Helix I often reach for keybinds that don’t exist. I might have to learn Vim keybinds because I’m definitely going to keep trying Zed.
• Not sure how I feel about what seems to be an inline discord-like chat/voice-call feature.

Going to check out if there’s git integration, because I couldn’t easily find it.

What do you find not great about mouse/keyboard GNOME? All the gestures I know have pretty simple mouse and keyboard equivalents. So far I just gesture three fingers up/down/left/right, which I can do on a keyboard with super/alt-super-left/alt-super-right or on a mouse with hot-corner/corner-click/corner-scroll. If there’s a gesture I’m missing out on please let me know, I always like to learn new tricks.

I haven’t had to use any application like that in a while, though I’m sure you’re right that they exist. Could you give me an example of an application feature that’s only accessible from the system tray?

I read it as pro-gyn-nova

• Pro: as in professional/effective
• Gyn: woman (from Proto-Indo-European *gwen), like in gynocology
• Nova: new (in many romance languages)

It rolls off the tongue and encapsulates three important aspects. I’m sure there are other readings of it too.

(0..=100).filter(|n| n % 2 == 1).for_each(|n| println!("{n}"))

They’re still working on it, and if it’s been a while since you last checked they may have already implemented the ones you wanted.
