I liked Alacritty well enough, but it doesn't support ligatures. Kitty does, so that's what I use.

- alpaca128 6y agoI went the same way, but in the long run kitty's startup delay of about half a second or more just felt too sluggish for me. Luckily st can now be patched for font ligature support, and it starts up ten times faster while I don't notice any performance difference in other cases; it seems GPU-based rendering in terminals is a bit overkill in the majority of applications.
- dkersten 6y agoOh. I haven’t noticed any startup lag personally. I’ll give st a try and compare.
