My laptop had filled with 4 years of cruft, conflicting configs, and unnecessary files. Things were slow so I decided to wipe it completely. I always loathe setting up new machines but honestly it was a breeze. Getting my dev environment and look and feel back up only took about an hour or so, and this thing boots so much faster now.

Moved from #alacritty to #kitty this week. But I really needed a better icon.
Picked the white one. πΊhttps://github.com/DinkDonk/kitty-icon

cropi had the slight intuition that #alacritty is a bit faster if i run it on the remote computer using #waypipe . i used #termbench-pro to bench the difference is impressive:

FranΓ§ois π¨π¦@jnunemaker I see no mention of #Alacritty here. I switched to it form iTerm2 (which I had been sponsoring and using for years and years) when iTerm2 introduced AI features.
