I mostly use Sublime, especially since it seems to be the best supported with cool things like autocompletion for less widespread languages. (Nothing particularly obscure, Go and Rust)

Though I don't use Sublime's build features, I mostly still switch to terminal for that.

The only exception is for Python on Windows I generally use Spyder because it comes with Python(x,y).

Has anyone tried Zed?

I like it, probably even more than Sublime. The problem is it's Chromium-based, which means it's bound by Javascript and browser sandboxing laws, so it's pretty much impossible to configure it to, say, run a build tool for a compiled language from it. My only other complaint is that it's project based and it's a bit more difficult than it should be to open a new folder as a project.

(To be fair, there's a standalone version that theoretically could run these things, but AFAICT, there's no real way to do an operation on some variable like $PROJECT_ROOT, nor does printing to console via Javascript do anything, so you don't get any feedback on command completion, and you can't execute a command anywhere in the command line).

How's sublime on scala? I've been using Intellij's plugin and it's pretty good.

No idea, I don't use Scala.
