    Well neither of those is backed by libghostty. They also aren't native. This multiplexer is a native application on macOS. Hopefully we see a native port for Windows and Linux too.…

    The application layer is in Swift at least.

    As Mitchell said, the rules of engagement are defined per project. I'm giving you an example.

    Mitchell has really enjoyed Nu essentially. If it is implemented in a shell script, it probably also means that general shell tooling can work with the format.

    Nobody is screwed in the Ghostty project. Simply open a discussion to discuss your idea.

    The barrier in the Ghostty project is to simply open a discussion. It's not really hard.

    Denouncing ICE is not denouncing federal immigration law. The Department of Homeland Security did not exist until 2003. Are you saying that prior to 2003, the US did not enforce fe…

    Can you explain why GTK is a mess?

    What is the flatpak stack? Even unsandboxed apps use the portals.

    Basedpyright is really good. I've been using it in neovim for a while. I'm currently evaluating ty. It is definitely not as good, but it is also really new. I appreciate that we ha…

    MATE exists. You can use it right now.

    The people on the Red Hat desktop team that work on GNOME are killing it. I think you might not be paying attention. Not every change is visible.

    gnome-terminal is GTK 3 last I checked, and foot uses Wayland primitives. If you want a native terminal feel, Ghostty would be a great terminal. On Linux, my backup terminal is Pty…

    I use Ghostty because it is a native application, and it looks great on macOS and GNOME. WezTerm, Kitty, and Foot don't do that for me. Foot is great though.

    The GNOME Foundation is a non-profit as well.

    I'm not a new Linux user, and I use GNOME. I've done stints on KDE, Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce, and Budgie. I personally find GNOME to be the best experience. I'm just stating that GNOME…

    I've used GNOME for years, and I'm not a heavy workspace user. I don't remember the last time I wanted a minimize action. If you really do want it, you can use GNOME Tweaks or Refi…

    My comment was not to imply that Ghostty performed better than Foot. Foot is a great terminal.
