I enjoy it, and it’s great to have another modern high performance terminal as an option for macOS and Linux.

For me, Kitty still has the edge:

WezTerm is also a strong contender:

When I tried Wezterm last year, you couldn't select more than 3-5 lines of text. I went to fix the 'bug', I found that it was intentional because it allocates a string and copies multiple times every time you click and drag.

Even if that's fixed, that design put me off the terminal forever.

		I regularly select hundreds of lines in Wezterm. I have never had a problem.

		Been using/abusing wezterm for years, my scrollback is set to 1000000 and text selection has never been a problem... copy mode however does make it even easier

Wezterms is certainly nice. I guess they haven't release another update? Currently stick to iTerm2.

		I switched from iTerm2 because at the time (possibly still), iTerm2 had a performance bug where large amounts of underlined text would cause the terminal to slow down noticeably. Wezterm works perfectly, and I appreciate the .lua configuration over iTerm2's mess of menus.
