Honestly, I've used a fully set up Neovim for the past few years, and I recently tried Zed and its "edit prediction," which predicts what you're going to modify next. I was surprised by how nice that felt — instead of remembering the correct keys to surround a word or line with quotes, I could just type either quotation mark, and the edit prediction would instantly suggest that I could press Tab to jump to the location for the other quote and add it. And not only for surrounding quotes, it worked with everything similar with the same keys and workflow.

Still prefer my neovim, but it really made me realize how much cognitive load all the keyboard shortcuts and other features add, even if they feel like muscle memory at this point.
