I used iTerm2.app for a while, back when Terminal.app didn't support 256 colors. That was literally the only reason and I ditched it the day Terminal.app got 256c, many years ago, now.
- joshka 2y agoIt however doesn't have 24bit color still
- wkat4242 2y agoMeh that's kinda overrated. There's only so many colours you can discern in individual letters.
- joshka 2y agoSure, the issue is that it doesn't gracefully degrade when presented with 24bit color.
- johncoltrane 2y agoWell, assuming 24bit—or anything from a terminal emulator, really—is not a very bright strategy.
- crest 2y agoDepends on your colour palette :-P.
- sengifluff 2y agoTmux does, though! I used iTerm2 for a while before realising that tmux automatically maps 24-bit colors to 256color. It works well enough for me that I switched back to Terminal.app.
- johncoltrane 2y agoWhich is not an issue for me as 256c is my sweet spot.
