I literally barely even go in the editor anymore. In a full day of coding (rare but still) probably have like 30 min in the editor. So I just stick with PHP storm since it's so much better for PHP stuff than all these VS code knock offs.

Zed is its own thing from the ground up. Not a VSCode fork. Worth a lil try if you’ve not already!

I did download it and used it for a second a while back. Didn't seem to know much about PHP/Laravel though. Maybe there's some plugins I need.

Yeah, it’s definitely not going to be as good as PHPStorm at the language-specific stuff. I’ve found all of its language support to be somewhat basic, but there’s something compelling about how _good_ it feels to use. They clearly care about the latency of everything.
