It's a little sad that after all these years I again find myself without an obvious day to day code editor.

Sublime Text is good... but when I work with Python I want Copilot and Copilot plugin for ST is bad. Python and C++ navigation is also very hit-and-miss out of the box.

VS Code has great Copilot integration and surprisingly good code navigation... but it locks up and becomes way too slow once in a while, requires occasional restarts, has weird UX in places, and nav breaks occasionally.

Every native Vim setup I've tried in the past (for both ST and VS Code I rely on Vim emulation plugins) had poor code and project navigation; I think NeoVim improves in that respect but last time I tried it it was not enough.

Zed doesn't work on Linux yet.

grrr

@zeux Might keep an eye on JetBrains IDEs... I've mainly used them for Python and much less so with C++, but there have been some C++ and multi-lang related tools coming from that direction lately (Rider, Fleet, CLion Nova).
