Why did you switch to Hyper? I've test-driven it and found it to be quite clunky.
I was using iTerm2, but switched to Alacritty. Some of the pros:
the speed difference is perceptible to me
it is written in Rust which I'm a huge fan of
portability across different Linux distros and macOS
configuration is easy and portable (saved in a dotfile)
cons:
no tabs (I use tmux)
single instance so I must move it around (although people have figured out a way to do it w/o any additional plugins or software under the issues tab)
no status line : I like knowing my resource utilization in real-time without resorting to Mac's Activity Monitor, top, or htop (but certainly less distrations)
It's more for the keyboard shortcut warriors IMO that use emacs/vim with tmux. Hard for me to go back to iTerm2 with tabs now because I have at least five sessions open, each housing a different project or repo, employing tmux plugins like resurrect and continuum give me auto-save and restore on reboots or even connecting remotely. I wish I had known sooner how easy it was to get up and running and learn tmux. I never have to figure out how to re-open all my projects anymore when the system panics or dreading a restart

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
