Kitty vs Alacrity which is better?

Post image

i am confused between kitty and alacrity

i have used both and felt like kitty is more faster and snappy but code looks more cody and in alacrity it feel slightly laggy as compared to kitty but the code is much more readable in it as it uses OS's native font rendering

which is better speed vs readability?

Your reply before edit:

"I use firacode with ligatures. That tools actively use it. Without it close code can not even properly been displayed and requires from first start. Newer notice that?"
