Kitty is awesome, but no windows if you're into that. Alacritty awesome as well, but minimalistic and rust which I have no idea why it matters in OPs post or in general.

I appreciate memory safety in applications that handle and interpret data controlled by third-parties. Kitty and Alacritty stand apart as written in memory safe languages, unlike the vast majority of terminal emulators which are written in C/C++. Doesn't mean their bug-free, but they're less likely to have trivial RCE vulnerabilities.

Kitty is written in C, afaik.

It's a mix of Python and C
