A few months ago, I swapped my iTerm with Alacritty (another Rust based project) and have been really happy with how snappy it is. I highly recommend it. Looking forward to trying this as a replacement for my tmux setup. I like the idea of being able to hack on wasm modules. Will there be matching key bindings for Tmux?

Interestingly, about an hour ago, I was looking into Alacritty to replace iTerm (because of how slow it feels!). I use tmux as well and seeing this project made me wonder if I should test out Alacritty + Zellij!

Alacritty is great, it feels very snappy and it can auto-reload the configuration(with a few exceptions), so you can quickly try out different settings without restarting the program all the time.

I switched to st because Alacritty still has no ligature support, but aside from that limitation it's definitely my favorite.

I personally can't stand not having multiple tabs. Plus, it is fast, but it is not the "fastest" as it falsely claims. I prefer MacOS's default terminal.app over it.
