Alacritty isn't actually super fast, the author just opened three other emulators and decided to call Alacritty "the fastest terminal emulator on earth".

Kitty is much more full-featured and super fast. I've switched to it and love it to bits.

EDIT: Ah, it's not available for Windows, too bad. It's the best.

He did a bit more than that[0], and he comapred it to Kitty.

Yes, it only came out a few day ago; it's understandable you were not aware of it :)

Heard of Konsole? It doesn't need GPU to achieve the same speed.

I like Kitty because of the built-in layouts, the speed is a bonus for me.
