Choose Codium..
I've been wanting something lighter than VSCodium, though I can't find anything else that also does active line-by-line comparison of 2 nearly identical files. Do any other custom-syntax-highlighting editors come to mind?
I recently got into using NeoVim with LazyVim. It's honestly been my favorite IDE experience by far after using VSCode for ages and then trying Zed for a year. It's super light and has infinity features and plugins.
Thanks, I'll try LazyVim. Kate and Zed still do not have live side-by-side comparing-and-editing, it seems. I did not realize how hard it is to find an editor other than VSCodium that has this feature.
