One personal gripe:
Compared to the default terminal, ghostty, close the terminal on ctrl+d.

Teams has really poor code block compared to slack or any other tool. You can feel the arrogance of the Microsoft PM each time you paste code or paste text that randomly render as html. Somehow, slack still has a better text input compared to teams.

Its not a if. it's necessary for the sake of people reviewing your code. Unless you work alone on your pet project and always push to master you never work alone.

You downvote me but you just agreed with me. When was the last time you read individual commits of a PR? If your PR need to keep the history of the commits that means that you should split your PR into smaller one.

Commit message should be ephemeral too. Squashing after a PR should be the default. Only at that moment does the PR/Commit message matter.

I agree with all you said. Its an improvment over nvim situation. I still think for common languages like python and markdown lsp should be setup by default. I am not sure if i am willing to forget all the muscle memory I have just yet.
Also I miss being able to ZZ to exit my file

Helix boast itself as a no config tool, but you have to find a lsp, installl it, edit a toml to activate it. I dont think we can call that "config less".
Success would be something like LazyVim but without the nagging of updates each time you open it.

You will save network latency every time, so probably 100-200ms for every call
