      Lemmy still doesn’t let someone post an embedded link and picture. People don’t realize that you have to include the linkin the body of the post which is annoying and intuitive, specially because when creating a new post Lemmy will allow you to fill out both form fields for link and picture but only use one.

    Weird table. I use Foot which is pretty fucking fast and does everything I need except panes so I might check this one out.

    Just had a look at Kitty and from what I understand, it’s an emulator, and it’s fast, has ligatures.

    Since I rarely use terminal outside of VS Code, i.e. zsh shell on Mac, I don’t quite understand what would I get from it?

    Reviews say it’s fast, has low latency between typing and the text appearing on the screen - I’m not seeing latency either way. The text is there, can it get any faster? 😅

    I’m late to this, but could a kind soul explain what I’m missing out on by using urxvt? I settled on it years ago and haven’t changed anything.

    I think that Hashimoto is using this project to iron out details that are left unaddressed due to convenience for other projects and the very low impact of any single issue Hashimoto has addressed. But much like with Apple projects, Hashimoto intends for the the end product to have greater value than the sum of the parts. Unlike Apple, it will be perfomant cross platform.

    I think the only way to evaluate a project like this is to ignore the feature comparison charts and use it to see if it really is better when those details are addressed. I have a feeling that many people will agree and most will shrug their shoulders and not give it a second look if they even gave it a first one.

    I’ll be trying Ghostty out soon. I hope it’s great. But I’m not expecting to be blown away.

      As @Treeniks@lemmy.ml pointed out, the author considers something as small as spawning a separate process for each window to mean a “non-native experience” (wait till they see how web browsers work)
