Was looking for a terminal that can render LazyVim. It’s looking like Alacritty (definitely not ghostty).

    kitty has two problems, one is called kovid goyal, and the other, kovid goyal having been one-shotted by the autoconfabulators.

      My problem with kitty is, it didn’t work for the languages I use, and when I complained the dev said he doesn’t care about non-European languages. Alacritty works well for Japanese for me, including input methods, but sadly not for Arabic or other bidi.

        mmhm, and I understand this is generally a problem with terminal emulators and complex scripts.

        again, wezterm’s author is very amenable to improve this.

        i don’t know how well does the support look like now, but i remember that wez furlong put quite an amount of work to have the visual representation of indic scripts be less painful, for example.
