This is the same guy who wrote Kitty Terminal. Such a nice guy who keeps writing excellent software and giving it away for free.

A lot of people would disagree with this. I don't want to talk ill of anybody here but maybe you should keep an eye on both projects' GitHub issues for a while.

As for a great terminal from (IMO) a genuine nice guy, try wezterm.

(I do infact pick open source software based on how they respond to issues since I am likely to spend time interacting with them.)

Kovid is super responsive and helpful on GitHub issues. His tone is not always friendly, but I guess you have to grow some teeth in todays open source world

He’s writing software for free. Providing full support for hundreds of issues is beyond reasonable. If there’s a breaking bug, it’s understandable if he will investigate, but nobody has time to investigate every single request. I’ve had my fair share of issues on my own projects and some people are too lazy to diagnose their own issues.
