In what terminals is rendering slow? I really think GPU acceleration for terminals (as seen in Ghostty) is silly. It's a terminal.
Edit: I can't post anymore today apparently because of dang. If you post a comment about a bad terminal at least tell us about the rendering issues.
VSCode (xterm.js) is one of the worst, but there's a large long tail of slow terminals out there.
Not really using VS Code terminal anymore, just Ubuntu terminal but the biggest problem I have is that at some point Claude just eats up all memory and session crashes. I know it's not really Claude's fault but damn it's annoying.
its not a bad idea to use one of the GPU Terminals on linux just for claude code, it works out a bit better
As someone who's business is run through a terminal, not everyone uses ghostty, even though they should. Remember, that they don't have a windows version.
Not everyone has the massive GPUs required by run Ghostty.
