I love Helix, I highly recommend it to anyone who never quite got on board with vim but likes the idea of it. I found it much easier to learn and use, and it is distinguished from other vimlikes in that it's got a useful starting configuration.

I really really like it. I honestly think they should wrap it in a GUI with some conveniences like a mouse based file browser and it can compete well with vscode.

Zed has Helix keybindings now!

Even as someone who uses both Helix and Zed, I don’t find Zed’s Helix keybindings very useful. There is still too much basic stuff missing. The biggest one to me personally is that the “gw” command does not seem to be implemented.

Have you found them to work well and be consistent? I've been a helix user for a couple years now, and I found Zed's helix keybindings to be inaccurate. Either that or I have some config options set that were confounding them. Curious how your experience with them has been?

Off-topic, but kudos to Zed as being the first editor to actually allow me do Emacs keybindings which don't suck. Requires configuration, but overall it works and I use it alongside my regular Emacs. Feels great!
