Wezterm is actually programmable. I am looking to drop Kitty as it intentionally offers minimal tmux support and the text rendering options that made it superior for me are being deprecated.

Until Ghostty offers the scriptability found in wezterm and kitty (e.g., hit a keybind, spawn a new terminal and execute a font picker script), I am trying out wezterm, which is pretty great, but renders fonts too thin by default. I stare at this thing eight hours a day so text rendering is super important.

Very customizable and extensible using Lua. Extensive documentation, native ssh support and built-in multiplexing.

I have them all installed, but I use WezTerm most often because it is fastest to give me a window when I hit the assigned shortcut key. Ghostty is a hair slower. Kitty takes 2-3 seconds. I keep launching terminals pretty frequently, so this matters to me a lot. The only other feature that it must have is truecolor.

I prefer WezTerm over ghosttty and kitty.

I prefer it's UI and level of customization.

Ghostty animations run like crap for me on linux (not sure why).

Folks have responded about WezTerm's programmability being the reason they like it, but if you don't mind I'd like to flip the question around: why do you prefer Kitty or Ghostty to WezTerm?
