      The main reason why it's like that is because he was having a kids and didn't want to get flooded with github issues. So he has a discord where some "waves" of beta testers are allowed to get to use the project such that he can have less redundant issues, and move things at a good pace. I think this is a reasonable approach. And currently there's like 80 issues so it seems to work really well for the project.

    Please do a video on Wezterm as well. configuring wezterm is such a satisfying experience (it uses lua under the hood). Some killer unique features of Wezterm: 1. configs get reloaded automatically 2. you can assign variables inside your config file (since its basically a lua script) 3. the config auto reloads on system appearance changes so you can programmatically change appearance - I use it for different themes light mode dark mode

      I've used konsole for years at a full time job. The aggregate amount of time I would have saved with something more powerful is less than the time I've spent watching typecraft videos on terminals. In fact, they would likely be an overall hindrance by normalizing non-standard behavior over remote ssh connections to AWS.
      And yet, I continue watching these videos.

Should I uninstall OMZ and start solely with Ghostty…or does OMZ offer nice features that complements Ghostty?

    I don't get the Ghostty hype. I installed it, I configured it and I don't see any difference between Kitty and Ghostty besides Ghostty is missing nice tabs that Kitty has. On macOS, if you disabel title bar you can't use tabs in Ghostty at all, it will open a new window instead. And the "performance" thing is funny, especially if it turns out that the difference is maybe 0.01s :D, I'm not sure who is able to notice the difference between terminals if it comes to performance. I'm not sure what's the point of creating new terminals that don't introduce anything innovative.

    Who knows, why in ghostty font rendering is worse than kitty for example? Wanted to setup, but with same font-family, font-size, weights etc, in kitty font renders slightly thicker and nicely rounded, at the same time in ghostty it have pixeling (like without proper hinting).

    -> 0.248 sec
    time kitty bash --norc -c "exit 0"

    I dont get it. So it does have decent performance and a config file that allows setting fonts and colorschemes. This seems super basic, about any terminal does that. I’m still waiting for a feature that would make me switch from something like foot that does not require a invite

    Idk, it's nice but I just don't see anything really compelling. If I'm going to write a terminal app, I'd want it to be compatible with a wide array of terminals, not just one. If I need bloom and crt shaders, I'd build it into my app so users don't have to use a specific terminal. I just don't see the draw
