I'm also currently trying to switch from VS Code to Zed and my biggest hope was a better performing editor. The startup time is way better but the typing input is so laggy on my 2018 MacBook Pro 15". It's far worse than VS Code. Also the power usage of Zed is high.

If it uses npm plugins, it's the same crap you get with vscode, just with a rust facade.

Zed plugins are wasm / somewhat isolated. LSPs are not sandboxed, but that's a massive reduction - trusting the LSP is far different from trusting arbitrary extensions.

The system is immature but it's directionally correct.

Is helix too minimalist? No js, just rust and tree sitter queries. Full lsp integration and everything just works.
