I’ve always just used konsole or gnome terminal. Never really looked into what else is available. Tried cool-retro-term the other day, but the novelty wore off pretty fast for me.
Curious to see if there’s a terminal someone swears by and refuses to use anything else.
Kitty can’t use bitmap fonts because of how it draws to screen & bitmap fonts don’t scale. You would need a different terminal for bitmap fonts or choose a different font.
It looks like, though OTB (opentype bitmap fonts) are different than plain bitmap fonts, and are actually supported by pango. Alacritty allows me to use Terminus OTB fonts for example. There are other true type fonts which are also sort of my plan B, which are not supported by kitty either, as mentioned, I wanted to see if there’s a way not just to select between the list kitty offers, which is sort of limited. At any rate if not Terminus, I don’t really like much my plan B true type fonts much…
I moved to Iosevka (custom) a few years back after a) switching to Kitty & b) realizing my eyesight was getting worse so I needed a bigger font than what Terminus provides
I’ll take a look at iosevka fonts, thanks !
BTW, moved to iosevka myself, now my current preferred font for both, the console, and fixed fonts…
Many thanks for the suggestion @toastal@lemmy.ml
Funny that I moved last month for the first time like 5 years. Now using Berkeley Mono.
