I’m reconsidering my terminal emulator and was curious what everyone was using.

    Just tried this again. Kitty takes like maybe half a second to start on my machine (maybe yours is faster?). Not sure how to measure this. xterm starts almost instantly. I can type “Super+Enter ls” and it’ll work. Doesn’t work with kitty, the keystrokes just disappear. Is this actually important? Probably not, but it feels annoying. Like slow internet.

    I might have imagined the typing latency, since it feels the same as xterm now. Maybe I’m remembering wrong. I was on the old Debian when I last tried this though, so something could have changed.
