Thanks for this post, first thing I did was search "bitmap" in the thread. If I can't use Terminus (+Unifont fallback), it's not for me.


Curious as to how much it matters; if a TTF font looks similar and is fast?


> if a TTF font looks similar

It doesn't, especially on average DPI monitors. Oh, you mean the OTF trick.


It was the first thing I check whenever I try a new terminal. If Terminus doesn't work then the terminal doesn't work for me.


fyi, I have just tried Unifont and worked perfectly.
