Lapce dev here. Firstly sorry for the bad experience for some people.
Just a bit of context here to explain the status of the project. The first line of code was started around 2018 as a personal project. And as of today, we still don't have anyone who works on it full time. We don't want to defend ourselves too much here, because there are very good quality code editors out there such as Helix, which is also community developed. But still, GUI is just such a beast of complexity, which consumes lots of time and energy which we already lack. That said, we had developed our own cross platform GUI toolkit called Floem, because as you may know there aren't any good ones that exist.
The journey was fun and challenging, but the aim of the project isn't a toy, and we believe by taking slow but firm steps, we'll reach production quality, one day. Before that, please do bear with us, and help us if you can (as in code).
