New terminal apps: Warp and Wave
New terminal apps: Warp and Wave
I was excited to learn about two new terminal emulator app which seemed to have a lot of cool new features, warp and wave. Then I looked closer and found that both are a no go for me.
Warp is closed source and you need to create an account to use your terminal. Jebus Christus, no, thanks, but no.
Wave is an Electron app. While that's better than not having a Linux version, I've seen how Electron apps behave. They are the ones which hog all memory and get killed by the OS first. So that's a no from me too.
I guess I keep my Tilix for now.

Have you tried kitty? It's seriously nice if you can live with the occasional "oh no I sshed to a server that doesn't have the correct terminfo files and now none of the normal terminal navigation features work"
I like Kitty, but the terminfo stuff happens often enough for me that it's a no-go.
Normally, I would fiddle with workarounds, but the author of Kitty has no plans to make Kitty play ball.
I just make
sshan alias that runsTERM=xterm /usr/bin/sshI use kitty as my term, I am a little jealous of some of the warp features though.
Wave has some cool features too though feels very clunky and busy ui
I ended up just making an alias for
s=kitten sshand then added my desktop to.ssh/configso now typings desktopdoes the trick!
