The more I use Zed the more I enjoy using it. There's something very calm and neat about its UI. (for sure my Matte Black theme also helps)

The correct solution is DDST, or Daily Daylight Saving Time. In the morning, it’s standard time to maximize morning light. That at noon everyday the clocks change to DST to maximize evening light. Then at midnight while you’re asleep they go back. Best of both worlds.
