Yup kitty revolutionized my terminal experience, hence the passion. I am sorry but since you seem to be passionate enough about ghostty to try to shill it in a article about a security vulnerability in it, I don't think you have a leg to stand on when it comes to complaining about my posts.
If you want to claim that ghostty is developed very rapidly it behoves you to do a little research and compare it against its peers before making that claim.
- sevg 2y agoWhat a strange reply. Kitty has been my terminal for years. I haven’t even used ghostty. I’m not shilling anything. Good grief. Try looking in a mirror. I was making a good faith comment just adding something positive. No need to turn it into a war. It’s strange (and just wrong) that you think I need to review the development velocity of all other projects before being impressed by something. Actually, no. To be impressed by the rainbow outside my window, I need not have seen and reviewed all other rainbows.

- sevg 2y agoImplying I’m a liar is a silly cheap shot. I’ve made zero HN comments about Firefox, Thunderbird and Blender. But I must be lying when I say I use those every day. You seem to have interpreted my original comment as a declaration of ghostty’s superiority. It wasn’t. Not every positive comment about a piece of software must also be interpreted as an attack on another piece of software, such that you have to come to its defence. Though perhaps you will tell me I’m forbidden from being impressed by any terminal other than Kitty, and certainly not God-forbid actually share that thought on HN!

- sevg 2y agoIt’s actually possible to make a positive comment about something and for it to be sincere. These are not mutually exclusive. Though it seems if there’s a positive comment about a terminal that you don’t personally think deserves it, the commenter must be a shill. Honestly quite bizarre how this sub-thread has turned out. What I thought was an innocent comment, you’ve turned into ghostty vs kitty. Not everything has to be turned into Vim vs Emacs, systemd vs anti-systemd, or which is objectively the best terminal. It’s possible to be impressed with ghostty’s release velocity without it being a judgment about Kitty or any other terminal or software project. But alas, in order to make a positive comment about ghostty, I must have already had a proven history of making positive comments about other terminals ;)

- sevg 2y agoPersonal attack? I just said it was interesting you mostly only comment about Kitty. Which is factually true. (It’s also not a criticism to be singularly passionate about something.) I’m often curious about people’s previous comments, it’s not some decision I made to research your comment history. I make one, single, lone comment about ghostty. You regularly (almost exclusively) seize opportunities to talk about Kitty, especially in threads that are about other terminals. And I’m the shill? Ok. You’ve also successfully set the goalposts up such that, even if I did have something to prove to you (which I don’t), I can’t prove anything anyway! It’s impossible to prove what terminal I use or don’t use. And impossible to go back and change my comment history. So, well played I guess ;)
