    Somehow all these OSS projects that start with only a Mac client seem so suspicious to me...

    I wonder if they will enforce a login to use the software?

      It's open source, and they already said they were Mac only because they used Metal for rendering. It's not suspicious for devs to use what they're most familiar with.

    I miss the point why they don't invested into Flatpak. I mean, with Flatpak they could've focus on make Zed works on the Flatpak platform and, as a consequence, it will be fine in every distro. The only thing that they should've be taking care is X11 and Wayland, but every other aspect to worry such as distro choice, QT/GTK, Gnome/KDE, etc would be vanished away
