I recently had an interview where I needed to ssh into a remote machine and planned on using ssh connection. While initially everything was working fine after a while zed wasn't able to persist changes I was making on files. I was doing :w but file was still displayed with a dot which I think means buffer was updated but not persisted and so was the case as interviewers told me they couldn't see my changes on the machine.
I have encountered the same issue earlier as well on other remote machines. The connection to remote machine was established using:
password in interview case
yubikey based auth in another instance
Environment
I currently use fedora 41 with latest zed and installed the binaries on the remote server on the fly as well for the first time. It was an aws instance not sure about os it was using but it was linux
