I love Zed and have been using it for years. I’ve been especially excited about multi-agent support—it feels like it could be a genuinely powerful model. That said, the current UX is pretty confusing. There’s a mismatch in visual hierarchy:

I couldn’t find the pricing page on the website. It might be because I’m looking at it on my phone and the nav item doesn’t show on small screens? Is the pricing transparent and, if so, what is it?

Thanks! Followup question: After you "eject" the app and start paying AWS directly but continue using porter, is the experience more like the archived repo? Or, is it still Porter Cloud just with different billing underneath?

Very cool! As someone pointed out, your github repo says it was archived: https://github.com/porter-dev/porter-archive Naively, I would think Porter cloud would just be a managed version of your porter-dev/porter-

FWIW, I've been using Elixir in production since 2016 and haven't found I've needed to learn any erlang. For context, we use Elixir for our backend and serve around ~100/rps over websockets. We've integrated Elixir

We had looked into Quill but decided to use Threads.com. Considering how inconsiderate Quill's shut down was, it was a good decision for that reason alone. For anyone looking at alternative for threaded messages and find Slack's t

We adopted it 4 years ago and love it. As for training people, I taught my non-technical co-founder Elixir for some backend scripts he needed to write. He found it much simpler to pick up then Javascript or Ruby and his code was idiomatic r

I'm glad to hear this! Using Remirror worries me because it injects an abstraction between our code and PM. However, when I look at your docs, it's not clear it's a different in approach from Remirror. The imports are all fro

Looks interesting! I'd love to see a link to a demo.

I had a similar experience with Atlas. At least 1.5 years ago, Atlas felt like a enterprise company trying to do a SaaS. They used the same sales person driven approach I associate with enterprise sales. mLab just felt far more developer f

We also left compose but left to move to mLab. When Compose was still MongoHQ, we were really impressed by their support. In the last few years, we became incredibly unsatisfied. mLab has been awesome and responsive. I hope the move to Atla

In the comments, you mention how Quill is extensible. Does Quill's extensibility enable the creation of a hierarchical level that resembles an HTML <section> element? From what I can tell, Quill/Parchment divides documents i

What are the performance characteristics of realtime push? Does the performance of inserts slow down with the number of subscriptions to change feeds? Or, is insert performance unrelated to subscriptions? Also, does the change feed only sho

Congrats on releasing Quill! I've been following the development since it was called "Scribe" and I'm excited it's released. I noticed there seems to be support for block level formatting (e.g. "h1"), but

It appears as if rank is stored as a float. The rank can quickly get to be a very, very small number. It seems at some point, float precision might be an issue and/or length of the rank key. Have you run into this and/or do you ha

I like it's elegance, but it looks seems similar to using an Ember.js view and Handlebars templates. http://j.mp/reactiveinember

I've also shipped an Ember app and a Knockout App. To me, there's no comparison: Ember development was easier and produced a faster app and a better organized code base. Once my app grew complex, Knockout grew increasingly hard to reason ab
