Feedback to author: The diagram and explanation took a beat longer than normal to scan, since this buries a bit that it's not about the beautiful source control system called fossil shipped as a composition of modules: https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki Great diagrams, so of course that's the first thing a reader will skim.

Nice, I like lightweight and modern terminal emulators. Just installed kitty and compared it in a sloppy way to foot [0] (by running `xxd /dev/urandom` side-by-side) and foot appears to be faster. [0] https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

Since it's the year of Wayland desktop I prefer foot https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot Renders faster than Alacritty or kitty. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

It would be an interesting addition forbthe benchmark, although it's Wayland only. [0] https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
