• foot with true-color tmux support (à la Alacritty)

  I find foot, the default terminal in Wayland, either supremely underrated or SEO-proof due to its name. It's easy to configure and fast, and I especially love being able to include other files like color schemes. So when I started using tmux dailly I was dismayed I might have to switch to Alacritty or kitty for Neovim to look right, because Googling "foot ________" does not lead anywhere, and its documentation is... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• RGFW: Single-header C99 window abstraction library

  I've seen some interesting work in doing Wayland by hand: https://gaultier.github.io/blog/wayland_from_scratch.html I'd also look at the work done on minimal wayland projects like [foot](https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot), which supports wayland well and seems to be written by hand (see: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/src/branch/master/wayland.c). - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Okay, I Like WezTerm

  I've migrated to Wez already. I actually had issues with them too but wasn't as bad as Kovid. More like what you said "Not our problem, it's X's problem." (Brew devs love to do this too) Leaves a bad taste in my mouth but dismissal is better than dismissal + gaslighting + insulting. Plus, Alacritty just hasn't been a great editor. (I wish foot would build a cross platform version[0]) [0]... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Troubleshooting: Terminal Lag

  You could maybe find out where the delay is by using st's Xembed support? Create a window with tabbed¹, open st in to it with "st -w -e true". If it is close to the monocle time, it is probably the other windows handling the resize event that is causing the slowdown not layout position. To prove it to myself: I'm using river² and I can see a doubling-ish of startup time with foot³, if I allow... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

  💡** My Take:** If you’re not ready to spend hours debugging AWS configurations, you might want to consider other cloud options, such as DigitalOcean or Gitlab for CI/CD. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
