Yes I have. Last time I tried it, it didn't have SSH support (I'm on a MBP so my life involves around remote development tooling).

I'll take a look again

I use Zed with SSH support daily, most often to SSH into a distrobox dev container running on localhost. It's a little jank but it works great for the most part.

Note that Zed has the aforementioned concern around downloading a remote binary as well. In my case this isn't an issue, since the distrobox container is not a security boundary of any kind.
