I really _want_ to like WezTerm but the font rendering just looks bad compared to Alacritty. I understand that this is a very personal feeling and plenty of people like the WezTerm way better... but not me.

The author is not interested in trying to fix this issue, which is totally fine, as they point out font rendering is very subjective, but I'm also not willing to use a terminal that looks worse, even though I like many other things about it better.

Oh man, fonts are fun. Ironically I moved off of alacrity and on to wezterm for font rendering reasons (p10k+patched nerd fonts), but that was pre pandemic

I’m using patched nerd fonts seemingly without issue on alacritty, were your problems specifically with p10k?
