Discussion
20 comments analyzed.
Competitors mentioned: Kitty terminal emulator, Alacritty terminal emulator, Ghostty terminal emulator, Browser-based SSH applications
Concerns raised: Limited color palette options compared to truecolor capabilities, Security vulnerabilities from terminal escape sequences, Terminal emulators lack published security policies, Memory unsafe languages used in terminal implementations, SSH PKI bootstrap mechanism solves no real problem for cold introductions
Feature requests: Support full truecolor with 16 million color options, Implement half-block character rendering for doubled vertical resolution, Add public security policy documentation on GitHub, Use x.509 certificates from WebPKI ACME providers for SSH host identity, Implement well-known SSH hosts mechanism for PKI bootstrap
