I tried Zed for a few days and loved it, but had to switch back to Cursor because I've become dependent on Cursor Tab.

The problem is that Cursor Tab seems kinda psychic, and I didn't realise how conditioned I'd become to just expressing a few keystrokes in the right place and have Tab pick up my intentions. If you're refactoring, you can move between files and it'll remember what you just did in a tab you just closed, and work out how to make the same changes here.

It's also really good at picking up patterns and the right imports from the whole repo. It seems to be working with a much larger, more persistent context.

I tried Zed AI, Copilot, and Mercury. All three seemed forgetful after a year of Cursor Tab. I wish there was a fix because literally everything else about Zed was an improvement.
