It's called progress.

Helix does a lot of things better than other editors, so cherry-picking some minor thing to make it look not worthwhile is just silly.




I’m not cherry picking. It’s just weird to see yet-another-editor in 2024, with developers having to reinvent everything from scratch.

I mean, half the comments here are disappointed that plugins will need to be coded in Steel/Scheme. That basically renders the entire world of editor plugins unusable. I just can’t wrap my head around that decision!
