sam was my only editor from 92 when i discovered it until last year.
 
under continual peer pressure i moved to zed on a mac which does many clever things i don’t need and even occasionally gets in the way, but (for me) it had one killer feature:

i write go these days and use dozens of third party libraries. zed allows me to ask “what methods are available on this variable?”

i would love to go back to sam but i fear adding treesitter and the rest needed to support this feature would kill one of us for sure.
