Giving it a whirl over break!

try it out! it seems extremely fast + performant, and to integrate well into the native desktop

Oh, finally!

📌

I am honest not sure why I am excited about yet another terminal emulator but I am

Just downloaded it and it’s been great so far!

Looks very interesting. Am curious, what's your config look like right now for themes, fonts, etc?

I’m only half an hour in, but so far pretty underwhelmed. If you’re already using a good terminal (eg kitty, alacrity, wezterm) I’m struggling to see a reason to switch. I’ve already run into 2 bugs, one of which seems like a showstopper for me (weird artefacts in full screen mode)

What advantages you could extract from it? Honestly I always use terminal inside Cursor / VS Code and I see I can’t use ghostty there 😔

Looks very good

I've been waiting for this all December

Been using this for a while also, has been a good experience so far

Random screenshot with random setup

Switching from iTerm and I’m happy so far.

Today is the day I have been waiting for 🔥

I haven’t found myself hampered in those areas by MacOS Terminal I guess. Both are just bringing me starship.rs :)

It seems what i liked about Hyper, #linux and #macos support, easy config, split without #tmux. But its fast and maintained.

Second font is iA Writer Mono S. It works fine in iTerm, but I get why Ghostty would err on the side of giving it a default letter box width (which is a bit wide for that font). I can use `adjust-cell-width` to change the letter box width.

Was able to get feature parity with my Kitty config in half the lines. Pretty neat. Had to figure out how to get Fish to send cursor change data so VI mode would show the correct cursor. Working very well.

Switched from Warp to Wezterm this year. Could still squeeze the change to Ghostty in

Oh, good to know. Thx for sharing this
