`less -R` is not the default.

FWIW, textual (and urwid) does ANSII escape codes well: https://github.com/Textualize/textual

• xserver-SIXEL

  6 57 10.0 C

  A X server implementation for SIXEL-featured terminals, based on @pelya's Xsdl kdrive server(https://github.com/pelya/xserver-xsdl)

If you really want crazy, run `xterm -ti 340`, then run run an X server from the xserver-sixel repository <https://github.com/saitoha/xserver-SIXEL> in it. Now y ou can run as many terminal emulators, complete with real truetype fonts and all the colors you could want, inside the one terminal. Use a tiling window manager and you’ll be able to avoid using tmux entirely.

• OpenSSH-LINEMODE

  1 8 10.0 C

  This is an import of the portable OpenSSH CVS tree, with hacks to support client-side input line editing. This feature is desirable because it eliminates character echoing delays when working with remote servers across distant and/or slow networks, and also helps cut down on the number of bytes and packets transmitted in an interactive session.

Some terminals can do tricks like this, some terminal authors care about performance, e.g. https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/src/branch/master/doc/benchma...

In general you're better off using a terminal that performs better, because extra buffering would be annoying the other way around in the usual throughput/latency tradeoff (you'd press ^C and then it would continue to display what's in its buffer to you, rather than reacting quickly).

What mosh brings is decoupling the rendering across the network. A lot of the poor perceived performance over high-latency links happens because ssh puts your terminal into raw mode, so even if the line is being echoed back, that is going all the way to the remote system and back again.

It's actually possible to fix line editing in ssh, without using something like mosh, see for example https://github.com/hyc/OpenSSH-LINEMODE. It's a shame OpenSSH hasn't merged those patches.
