For example https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/42905#issuecommen...

So there is now a fork: https://github.com/gpui-ce/gpui-ce/ But I don't know if that's sustainable.

That's disheartening, though also understandable from Zeds point of view.

I hope the community fork could gain traction. I believe there's a lot of potential in GPUI.

Yeah, it really sucks as I really like it, but I've been hitting edge cases which would be solved by some of the PRs mentioned.
