I'm sure everyone has a favorite, mine is simply able to slide out iTerm2 from the top of the screen with a hotkey (tilde ofc.) à la Quake console.

performance

The latency of iTerm has traditionally been much worse than Terminal.app. It got a bit better with GPU rendering, but it still trails behind Terminal.app quite a bit.

I tried iTerm for a while because Terminal.app does not support true color. But the difference in latency is definitely noticeable to me.

I use Alacritty as my terminal emulator plus hammerspoon to get the same effect.

Would you be willing to share your Hammerspoon config, or at least that part? Would love to do this with Alacritty!
