The separators between commands enhanced readability in ways I would never have guessed possible.
The visual indicators here were incredibly clear. The terminal's ability to go beyond textual representations & to clearly delineate - with nice slick graphics that far surpass the terminal - what's happening was deeply compelling, in a way I never would have guessed before seeing it.
I've tried some pretty nice/fancy neovim setups (mostly discarded, now on AstroVim 3) and while I appreciate what they can offer, I can't emphasize enough how great Warp was at presenting information in an effective fashion. The visual experience really understood what helpful information it could present in a powerful way.
Being skeptical that "just a fancier version" has nothing to offer you seems like a callous & shallow disregard. My experience was brief, maybe 30 minutes, and I want to do better justice & I'm sorry I haven't. But you also haven't left the door open to maybe consider that the fancier version is fancy for good reasons, that it has real & competent ergonomic & informational value. Let's meet in the middle & both try to do better.
Warp have set a big hurdle to get over by making the top-of-funnel so harsh a winnowing function. But every time I see criticism against Warp, it's one and only one point. I'm not so willing to completely rule out & discard technology because it has one particular gotcha that yes i too snobbishly would reject.
Letting oneself be too quickly polarized is a weakness. We have to be willing to consider that we're wrong, that factors we think are important might not matter as much as they do. Or to consider that our perspective/assessment is wrong (such as assuming Electron is always a enormous resource hog).
