@esparta @mitchellh GhosTTY is great! It's been my daily driver for a few months now.
@ruralocity @mitchellh after one week of usage I can tell I'm not going back to #alacritty, I will keep myself using #ghostty for the foreseeable future.
I've been told your #Rails leader uses #Alacritty as his terminal emulator - part of their Linux "distribution"...
That above has accelerated my _need_ to move to something else since I had some other issues - besides being kind-of-slow in my environment...
So, starting today I'm changing to #Ghostty, by @mitchellh
Ghostty is neat, and works perfectly with my current setup: #tmux + #ViM on both, macOS and Linux.

I needed some fun time yesterday night, so I applied the Catppuccin theme to Ghostty, Lazygit, and of course Helix.
The results look kinda neat with Amethyst on macOS.
@thibaultamartin
That syntax coloring in helix does not look very Catppucvin to me. What flavor is this?
On NixOS there is a tool called #Stylix, where you can change the style for many applications in one go. Love it.

#keyd (https://github.com/rvaiya/keyd) was basically one of the biggest missing pieces for me last time I tried Linux. With it, I can map all my keys and replace application shortcuts with better defaults. Like this:
[google-chrome]
meta.[ = C-S-tab
meta.] = macro(C-tab)
[firefox-esr]
meta.] = macro(C-tab)
meta.[ = C-S-tab
That shortcut is way nicer for my hands, and I unified it everywhere. Luckily, #Ghostty has a config for this.
