Neonmodem: TUI for Lobsters, HN, etc.
WeeChat[0] with Bitlbee[1] supports a metric assload of services, albeit by pretending they're IRC (which does work - I spent years in weechat/irssi with bitlbee talking to various people on disparate services.)
Or if you're just after Telegram/WhatsApp, nchat[2] is ok (I can vouch for the Telegram half only.)

GNU Emacs Telegram Client
The fact that Telegram provides an API enabling third-party clients (like this one) is the main thing that sets it apart from the other big mobile chat platforms (WhatsApp, Messenger, Signal) for me.
It's really nice to have access to a wide variety of client softwares, and the ability to build ones own (shameless plug - I built https://github.com/d99kris/nchat which is a simple TUI client).

Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
Another problem is that the cursor moves while the screen is buffer is being rendered. The location is only really known once the cursor settles in the same place for some time, which is unacceptable in terms of latency.
The synchronized output extension could be used to do this, though. https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/blob/master/docs...

Contour: Modern and Fast Terminal Emulator
https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/issues/382
This apparently does not support the Kitty graphics protocol, just Sixel, which makes it look fairly unattractive to me, personally.

Is there a way to make Dolphin use a terminal app other than Konsole?
https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour Contour has a implementation for this. See this release: https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/releases/tag/v0.3.6.240

Speeding up incremental Rust compilation with dylibs - Robert Krahn
Now that I'm well rested I decided to compile some similar terminal emulators with clang++ and rustc to see how big of a gap we're looking at. For the C++ terminal emulator I compiled contour with ~80k lines of C++ and over 200k lines when accounting for dependencies (not including dynamically linked dependencies), and then I'm using alacritty with ~35k lines of Rust and over 2 million (!) lines for the whole dependency tree when vendoring all dependencies. Because Rust tries to make most software cross platform with conditional compilation and many of these aren't Linux specific libraries I'm gonna assume it's compiling half or two thirds of the lines of dependencies for this experiment with the C++ compiling probably 3/4ths of the dependency tree considering I'm not on windows.

What terminal emulator do you use?
I have my eyes on this though.
What are some alternatives?

S-Lang - The S-Lang programming library is a software library for Unix, Windows, VMS, OS/2, and Mac OS X. It provides routines for embedding an interpreter for the S-Lang scripting language, and components to facilitate the creation of text-based applications.[3] The latter class of functions include routines for constructing and manipulating keymaps, an interactive line-editing facility, and both low- and high-level screen/terminal management functions.
