I switched from Alacritty to Wezterm because I wanted ligature support and it's also written in Rust. I really like it, though it had some issues with Wayland so I had to install a -git package but it's fixed now. It also has a bunch of features I don't use so I can't really talk about those. I you don't care about ligatures and the features, use Alacritty, it's really good.

At least the shareholders got rich.

IIRC the person who added that didn't add it as a joke but as a genuine thing.

I don't consider this an upgrade, it's more of a switch. The 6700 xt new is almost the same price I can sell the 3060 ti for. I won't be upgrading for at least 5 years.

 

I have been considering selling my 3060 ti and buying a 6700 xt for a while now. The main reasons are (potentially) switching to wayland, +4 gb of vram, hardware acceleration in firefox (and steam too, it's leaking vram for me with nvidia), potentially vr on linux with my quest 2 (a lot of things in alvr seem to be locked for nvidia) and better compatibility with linux in general. I don't really care for productivity or rtx and dlss (it's not like they work in most games anyway). The upgrade would cost me at most $75.
