Have you tried Ki Editor[0]? It seems to be more into direction that you are looking for. It is not as mature as the rest of the editors but the editing model is definitely an improvement from ux perspective

Vis editor [0] also has multicursor and powerful sam's structural regular expression

Hadn't heard of this. So I looked at the docs for Ki.

I see the "Why Ki?", and then it has this:

> Being first-class means that it is not an extra or even sidekick; it is the protagonist.

Eh.

I find it quite off putting.

I guess my expectation is that someone enthusiastic enough to write a text editor with a value proposition of "it's got good tree-sitter-based navigation" would want to discuss why they thing syntactic selection is neat.

Seeing cliche LLMisms doesn't signal the same level of care to me.

Having been in the community for some time, it is just how the authors are, very enthusiastic about the wording. They like to come up with some wild terms explaining different behaviors and reasoning behind those behaviors, like "positional coherence" or "behavioral asymmetry", and the term "kimmunity" to reference to ki editor community. On a surface level, sure, it looks LLM generated, but I would be very surprised if they used LLM to generate that sentence. I choose to look at the actual meaning of the content and what they are trying to do differently

To me, what you describe is a red flag.

For example, that doesn't sound like they will take feedback from the community serious.

To some extend that is true for any opinionated piece of software. But that is a beauty of opensource don't use it if it doesn't match your idea of how that software should look like

It's not generated by LLM, it was actually my idea, but grammar-corrected by LLM, but you are not wrong either, the docs are really subpar in a lot of ways, and not clearly explaining why is one of them, and of course, the potentially cringey sentences too, someone complained the docs read like a Vogue magazine before lol

I sincerely respect your humility, it's refreshing. I doubt I'll have time to try out Ki any time soon, but it's been bumped up the infinite TODO list :)
