That is very cool!

Oooh what does ATProto and Unison Cloud sync mean? Able to store your PDS data on Unison Cloud?

Syntax highlighting is tied to whatever the tree-sitter parser for a language gives back. You can inspect this tree using `dev: open syntax tree view` command from the palette.
A theme can then apply a color to certain scopes: zed.dev/docs/extensi...

My experience with the themes has been wonky tho

P.S. I also use Zed at times(similar reasons like yours), but it does consume more memory than some terminal editors, but it sure does look pretty.

Helix is like being in vim's visual mode by default, but more importantly Zed has quite a decent Helix mode! If you ever feel adventurous try it out. Visual first + multicursors + multibuffers means you can have quite a lot of editing-fun without doing crazy incantations, with visual feedback!

Obsidian Web Clipper is great, and also currently what I use.

It is bubble-wrap made with checkboxes. They 'pop' when you click them. Leave me alone.

A thing that makes this hard to discuss imo, is that even without LLMs productivity was hard to put into concrete words. Is it lines of code? Is it the domain knowledge one gained? Is it some intricate combination of experience, mistakes made, lessons learned and environment :P?
