Ask HN: Which Linux terminal emulator do you prefer and why?
I use xst, a fork of st. It does everything I need it to do. It's not very feature-full, but even if I had the kinds of features other terminal emulators have I wouldn't use them, so this is fine.

Having problems with patched st terminal. More info in comments
Anyway, I digress. OP might want to check out xst
- I don't wanna use st anymore but I want a minimalist terminal I can customize

Fonts in st showing wrong colours
Then I found this page where someone suggests what to do when st gives the error "font weight does not match". And surely, by uncommenting the line f->badweight = 1; * in x.c I have managed to set up the lovely Fira Code font with original colours.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing shotkey and xst you can also consider the following projects:
sxhkd - Simple X hotkey daemon
st-flexipatch - An st build with preprocessor directives to decide which patches to include during build time
