Trying this out next, thanks; it's a bit different but may be the one! It should get into the Software Manager...
Zed has AI features, but there's a config flag that disables all of them in one go. They also have collaboration features that you might want to disable as well... Also telemetry.
Lame, thanks! Edit: All telemetry and AI features were disabled by default in my installation. Was that not the case for you?
However, Zed still does not have side-by-side file comparison that involves live editing of one to instantly reflect changes on the other; I have to open the diff, and then find the contradictory spots separately in a third window. Why is it so hard to find an editor with live comparison-editing?
