    Only just got a 120Hz monitor recently, so reading scrolling text now is so much easer and faster than before. Looking forward to any IDE that can match that kind of framerate performance as well.

    Too bad I don’t own a mac to be able to test out the current release of Zed as an IDE. However, I’m not sure about the growing trend of rasterizing the entire GUI, as compared to conventional text rendering methods or GUI libs with established accessibility support.

      VS Code at least on my 144Hz Android phone supports High refresh rate. No idea why this is a “special feature”.

        Are you using the PWA, self hosted or via code spaces/other VPS? With which web browser?
        I tried hosting code server via termux for a while, but a user proot felt too slow, even if the PWA UI ran silky smooth.
        Perhaps when my warranty runs out I’ll root the device to switch to using a proper chroot instead.

          Running as a fullscreen PWA through Brave on a Xiaomi Mi 10T, hosted on in a Linux VM. Its pretty fast for the most when doing for example Angular for the most part and the UI is butter.
