> What’s modal about it? Modal? The various input modes. Think of them as if you're using vi/vim, except that it's a terminal. Insert mode is just like every other terminal. Press …

This is interesting. I am trying not to feel offended by your toxic play, so let's get started: > kitty's graphics protocol is literally infinitely faster than sixels for local tra…

This doesn't make sense. WebGL is as GPU accelerated as the other young'ish GPU accelerated terminals, except that they're not running in the browser, which should(tm) make them ru…

We finally have a software-fallback, and do not hard-depend on AES-NI anymore. But if it's present, we'll use it (also its equivalent on ARM64)

Hey, we are using Qt only on the pure frontend GUI side. The rendering itself is using FreeType + HarfBuzz independantly of the GUI. We chose this model explicitly to still be free…

To be honest, refterm was a bad idea to begin with. It's not a terminal, and it eventually also stated that in its README.md. Not to mention, that you - by definition - can't compa…

simply put, yes. but I know very well that performance can be measured in many different dimensions and ways. I optimize for speed for my own personal use-cases (vim should be flue…

There are even YT videos about that. Not kittyng :)

How did you install Contour and what is the TERM environment variable set to and is your terminfo properly resolved? I just asked someone with an AMD/NVIDIA card to try out nvtop i…

> In comparaison I have to add that the rendering in more defined in Urxvt that Contour even after tinkering, Nothing is perfect. Many thanks for trying though. If you don't mind, …

While I personally find your comment quite insulting, I think that we have pretty brought support for various mainstream Linux distributions and also release binaries, including fo…

> It would be nice if someone worked on actually improving the terminal experience. Contour. Oh, sorry, I mean: To be honest? There are plenty of young terminals that work on that,…

There are many reasons for me to not have kitty protocol implemented. Objectively speaking, I try to mention only one here: Sixel seems to have raised attraction across the whole t…

Please give us feedback in the issue tracker. We know we're not perfect, but certainly very much appreciate positive constructive feedback as well as bug reports. p.s.: I did not s…

To be fair, the vi input mode (or modal input modes) in Contour are way more than simply doing `set -o vi` in bash. You cannot compare those two. The reason why I implemented modal…

Monomux is a terminal multiplexer that isn't a terminal emulator. Less featureful than tmux (therefore) but still the better screen. Read the "Why" section for a much better explan…

Exactly. Therefore you cannot compare a renderers performance with some other that has a fully functional VT backend attached. The comparising result is meaningless. His renderer i…

> > I am open for being corrected > No. No you're not. Because you keep shifting goalposts and ignoring inconvenient truths. I still am. Please submit a PR to refterm to that imple…

I don't your name, pc86, is a real name, too. That's the life of them internet. So much about Pseudonym. So if already the very first statement is that questionable, how can I beli…

> And yes it is simple. I like. Please submit a PR and make Windows Terminal as fast as refterm, trivially speaking, 2GB/s, no slower than the unoptimized refterm. Just to quote yo…

Reading your post feels good, man. But your last sentence kind of bothers me. Why do you feel they are insulting you now? I think, if at all, someone else was, and kept doing, and …
