Best terminal I've found except for a complete deal-breaker for me: Lack of support for bitmap fonts (meaning I cannot comfortably use them in low DPI monitors), and the author has no intention of adding them.

A pity, maybe some day either the author changes his mind or Alacritty will be less buggy to make it a straight upgrade to Kitty. In the meantime, Termite it is.




Likewise, I found this as I was trying to make it work with Terminus:

Obviously using the truetype version (which isn't pixel perfect but a mess) is not an option.

Too bad. I'll stick to libvte (sakura).
