#alacritty

This is weird but alt + backspace no longer works on #Alacritty if you're using a #Fish shell, it does work on #Bash. I don't think this is a Fish "issue" either, since that keybind still works as expected, with Fish, on #Konsole. Anyone knows how to fix this?

---

edit:

I just realised that this is prolly not an issue with Alacritty + Fish on a "vanilla" setup - this only occurs when using
#Toshy, a neat utility I've been using for a (long) while now that configures and mimics a #macOS like keybinds on a #Linux system through a service (that can easily be stopped/started, etc.).

I've reported this
issue on their repo to see if they're able to figure this out. It most likely has something to do with the new Fish 4.0.0 release, since I'm still using the same Alacritty (and Toshy) version since this issue started.

I also switched from default Gnome Console to #ghostty, which is fantastic new terminal. I wanted to like both #alacritty and #wezterm, but with both it was a lot of papercuts and they never felt right for me so I mostly stayed with Gnome Console (which had best font rendering for my 125% scaled desktop). Ghostty looks and feels great out of the box, and I only changed maybe 5 settings from their defaults. #neovim feels great on Ghostty too, fast, featureful, without any hassle.

This clipboard issue I'm currently having on #KDE/#Linux/#Wayland is awfully bad btw, I didn't even realise earlier how it's an "all-encompassing" clipboard issue and not only with certain apps or anything like that.

It happens if I copy and paste a word on
#VScode. It happens if I do the same on #Firefox. It happens if I do the same on #Dolphin (file manager). It happens if I do the same on my terminals like #Alacritty or #Konsole. It happens even if I click-to-copy an emoji on KDE's Emoji Selector. It even happens with any "Copy Link" option found on any "share sheet" on any website/social media.

I thought it might have been something to do with perhaps the action of copying using keybinds (i.e.
Ctrl + C) but clearly not. In all those examples I've provided, I have to do the action to copy, whatever that may be, twice. Doing it once, does nothing as it will paste whatever was copied to the clipboard before it, not the latest of what you (thought to) have copied.

This is beyond ridiculous.

Sakurajima Social (桜島SNS)Mika (@irfan)I wonder how long must we wait for #KDE Plasma 6/#Wayland to be developed to see seemingly basic needs for a good OS to be met, like they did not too long ago on #KDEPlasma 5(.27) and #X11/#Xorg. I'll def be missing a bunch here but some that are frustrating me rn, and made me write this post includes having to do some things, **TWICE** such as entering a text input on the #Dolphin file manager - before this, if I'm entering a name for a new directory, I'd have to enter it once, as you'd expect it. Now, I've to enter it twice for some reason for it to register. Weird ass clipboard issues people are very aware of rn - where some things just don't copy over some apps or widgets (presumably some sort of incompatibility between Wayland and #Xwayland apps) - sometimes they can be done, but requires some sort of stupid _ritual_ like pasting what you had copied first on the source app, before pasting again on the target app. Atm though, for wtv reason, my computer decided to copy some things but not others, **ON THE SAME APP** (i.e. Within the same #VSCode window, or the same #Firefox window). I'd copy a word, paste it and see that it's pasting a word I copied earlier, not just now. I'd copy the same word again and paste it, and this time it works. Just a while ago **NONE** of this was happening, and now it started, it wouldn't stop. WTF? The only workaround to this is for me to literally make any copy I wanted to do, **TWICE** - to make sure it's copied. I'm pretty fucking sure copy and paste is an ancient computing feature, not something revolutionary or new. Another thing happening I recently reported is how more and more apps are suddenly appearing with broken ass fonts or theming (rendering) for wtv reason - font on Firefox looks different than how it was, font on Angry IP Scanner looks broken as hell, apps like #Handbrake are no longer using KDE's Breeze theme and looks ugly as hell (all of these on #Flatpak), when all of them looked fine some updates ago. I'm not putting the blame on KDE/Wayland for all/some of these tho, cos it might very well be a (very annoying) #Gnome/#GTK _quirk_ instead for all I know. Regardless, to the end user, your beautiful desktop experience has seemingly become fucking ugly overnight. I love KDE, I (generally) love Plasma 6 (tho I personally am not seeing any improvement over Plasma 5.27), I love that we're spearheading Wayland, but fuck my desktop went from a huge boost in productivity moving away from #Windows/#macOS to #Linux, something I still love and will continue to daily drive, but is becoming something that is wasting more and more of my time from actually getting things done. Every #PlasmaDesktop update I'm hoping for these (**and more**) to be addressed, but nope, not yet.

I like #Alacritty, but the config format changes so much between versions, it's impossible to use the same config file between the box you compiled it from scratch on, the box you just used the debian-provided version on, and the box you use the OpenBSD-provided version on without tons of error messages almost every time you open it.

I'd like to, yeah. I just kinda forgot the beauty of having a machine set up for focus, and not dithering.

I'll have to uninstall toot from it, and I might temporarily remove my authorized_keys entry from my rPi machine so I don't hop over to it to use tut, either.

I've also found that #Alacritty seems to be the perfect terminal for #OpenBSD... nice blend of fairly modern options and decent unicode support. For some reason, unicode just doesn't work right on #lxterminal on that OS.
