I use both zed and vim, but the former for 'big' work because of:
a) file tree - I really like being able to 'root' the view at a directory, explore the hierarchy, and easily open any file within it
b) LSP - Zed's auto-formatting is it's best feature, for me
I generally like a whole bunch of things the gui gives me, but I would probably drop zed if I could get these two features working as well (or, at least, almost as well) in vi.
