Emojis recently disappeared in foot and/or fuzzel?
Install a non-COLRv1 emoji font (bitmap or SVG-based are fine).
This has always been a limitation in fcft, but it seems a popular emoji font recently switched to COLRv1.
Testing river/kwm. Liking it so far. Being able to switch between different layouts is great.
Niri has been very nice, but it's a little bit too heavy, with a bit too many features I don't use.
#foot 1.26.0 has been released 🥳
Too many changes to list here, see the full changelog at: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/releases/tag/1.26.0
Foot is a minimalistish terminal emulator for Wayland that prioritizes low latency input, and high throughput at the same time.
#fuzzel 1.14.1 is out! 🥳
This is a bug fix release. A couple of crash fixes, and we also fixed a sorting/matching regression. So make sure you update ;)

Big thanks to @markstos@urbanists.social who has been stepping up as a co-maintainer and is doing more and more for each release.
#foot 1.25.0 has been released! 🎉
I'd say the major highlight of this release is the performance and latency improvements for compositors that don't release SHM buffers immediately (niri, kde, jay, and others).
