At RustConf we were demo'ing zed, and it continually popped open the chat panel. We're usually inured to this because the Chat panel doesn't open unless a Guest is in the channel, but it made me sad that we were showing a long stream of vacuous comments and unresponded to questions on every demo screen. We may bring chat back in the future, but we need more thought on the UX, and we need to rebuild the backend to not use the existing collab server that we're trying to move off of. Release Notes: - Removed the chat feature from Zed (Sorry to the 5 of you who use this on the regular!)

Which chat feature is this referring to? The collab panel? AI chat? 🤔 |

Kind of wild that you removed an entire feature, a networked one at that, and it was only 5.7k lines removed. Kudos to the high code quality in this project that makes it possible to implement a chat feature in only 5k lines! Impressive. |
