Radislav Golubtsov via aur-general left as an exercise for the reader:
> What’s regarding your proposal instead of URxvt (Better Wheel Scrolling) — Alacritty [3] — I’d indeed, definitely have to try it out. Thank you for a suggestion.

I highly recommend giving Kitty and WezTerm (especially the
latter's most recent nightly builds) a try, or foot if you're on
wayland. Alacritty is pretty weak on emoji, combining
characters, and has no mainline bitmap protocol (ayosec has his
graphics branch, but even that only implements Sixel).

It's of course a fine terminal, and certainly a step up from URxvt.

foot is a piece of art.
