Alacritty on macOS and Linux user here (Windows Terminal on Windows due to easily different shells available, formerly used iTerm2 on macOS). I make up for lack of tabs with zellij locally (tmux remotely). Also allows me to relog or close/update Alacritty. I will give Ghostty a whirl but why no shout out to Alacritty? Which features am I missing out on?
Thanks. I'm interested in seeing examples (of Alacritty community not being nice). I'm aware of one now [1] but I have not been involved with the Alacritty community much. I read/write a few bug reports when the project was born; after that it has served me very well (compared to iTerm2 and Terminal.app). IIRC there was something with ligatures but I don't remember.
Thus far I have not been able to get my italic bold font (Cartograph CF) working on Ghostty, but this is a minor issue.
Yikes, that ramblerman who was all over that HN thread still posts today. The distance by which he missed the point is shocking. How does one get that far off without doing it deliberately?
