If you're a fan of neovim I'd like to take this opportunity to give Neovide a shout. It's essentially a purpose built terminal emulator that can only run Neovim and has some fun extensions with that in mind, like the ability to configure font, window size, fullscreen, window opacity etc. using Vim commands, implement sub-character scrolling, let Neovim floating windows have transparency, and have fun little animations when the cursor moves. It also has support for all the modern terminal emulation essentials like truecolor, ligatures, and emoji. https://neovide.dev/

I've tried it before, it's fine but had issues running on wayland last I tried. Did they fix the wayland issues? Looking at the issue tracker it seems like there are still a few open Wayland issues.

kiTTY by contrast has had Wayland support for about as long as I've used it.

I've been using it exclusively with Wayland for about a year now and I've yet to have any issues. YMMV however.

Sounds good, I'll take a look too

Super cool, just installed this, and eager to spend a workday with it now, thanks!
