I went from xterm to urxvt (which I used for many years), back to xterm, then to st to alacritty and finally settled on kitty, which I love.
kitty has TrueColor support, way more features than aclacritty (which seems to take a more minimalist approach, if I remember right, and this was one of the main reasons I switched from the latter to the former), and in my experience has been both extremely fast and extremely stable.
The only thing I really don't like about it is that it seems to copy continuously to the clipboard when I click and drag over some text, so pieces of that text end up cluttering my clipboard history (for which I use parcellite on Linux). The final selection when I finish moving my mouse and let go of my left mouse button works fine, as usual, so I'm willing to live with this... though I'd still prefer it not to copy anything to my clipboard until I've finished clicking and dragging and released my left mouse button.
