Survey says, pretty good.

A few months ago, a new terminal emulator was released. It’s called ghostty, and it has been a highly anticipated terminal emulator for a while, especially due to the coverage that it received from ThePrimeagen, who had been using for a while, while it was in private beta.

    Is it crazy that I just use the default provided terminal emulator (Fedora/Gnome)? Why would I use something like this?

      If you like the default terminal use it for me i use terminals like this due to the gpu acceleration and stuff

      If you are happy with the default, then just use the default.

      Some of us use the terminal more than any other app, so I like my terminal to be super lightweight and snappy in all situations so it opens instantaneously (I doubt this one is like that though, if it has big dependencies like GTK / Qt), preferably if it does so without sacrificing in features (true color, things like sixel for graphics, allowing to set fallback fonts, maybe font ligatures, being able to set the app-id so my compositor can treat special terminal windows differently, etc).

        Oh, yeah. If it’s your primary work environment I can see how you could use such features. I use the terminal maybe 1-2 per day, so it’s not a priority for me. Thanks for clarifying!
