I agree with powerlevel9k. i still have marginal enjoyment from the fiddly things thought and i've switched to powerlevel10k [1]. Its noticeably faster and the default settings are minimalist enough for me. does not fix the fact that you need to install fonts which I can't get working on some terminals (urxvt).

I had issues with urxvt and ended up moving to Kitty (https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty). I'm not impressed with its' autoupdate feature, but it can be disabled. Apart from that a few visual bugs which are probably to do with nvidia the terminal is great. The best feature? Emojis render flawlessly.

I had a proof of concept, but hackernews doesn't support emojis :'(

You can use powerlevel10k with the default system font. It works fine with urxvt without any twiddling.
