It's good feedback. We've tried to make it so there is a single "turn off all the AI stuff" button (and you can opt into plain old terminal during onboarding as well, with no login, etc). Curious if this does the trick?

can you share more about what makes it so great. this is the first i am hearing about it , so i am curious.

i currently use tmux and ghostty for my workflow

Who are their highly funded closed-source competitors they claim Warp cannot beat on price?

Warp is the only closed source terminal product I know of. Most other popular terminal emulators are open source already.

I feel like their funding is drying up and this is their last ditch effort to have the "community" build their product for them.

They claim agents will run the show, with inputs from community in the form of ideas/specs/direction. I wonder how long that will be sustainable for given the subsidized model prices are collapsing as we speak.

Is this an attempt to pivot to something else while the "community" keeps their first product alive? Maybe I'm being too cynical here, but I don't see this as an act of good faith, especially given their roots in VC funding.

They got rid of the login requirement a long time ago: https://www.warp.dev/blog/lifting-login-requirement

As someone who released the source of an app that was always expected to be public I appreciate that it would be interesting but I'm not surprised. If the code isn't being regularly published there is just less incentive to be sure that every commit is "public ready". So when releasing I wanted to do a full review of current code (and especially comments and docs). This was tedious enough and even though we didn't find anything major and only a handful of things that should be cleaned I absolutely wouldn't want to do this for the full history.

Could we have just released it? Absolutely. But I think everyone who contributed felt better knowing that what was released had one final "ready for public" review. Then our regular review process handled that going forward.

Warp founder here. We actually are chatting with Mitchell about integrating Ghostty so it's the terminal grid renderer within Warp.

check out yaw terminal for a terminal first experience that also treats ai cli as a first class citizen. and if you're on windows is very dialed into git bash.

Warp failed to launch. Perhaps too much AI pushed onto the users in the early days that failed to show its charm.

Ghostty remains incredible stable and usable and fast compared to competition.

libghostty makes it pretty easy to do. I spent about two weeks setting something up until it was advanced enough to daily drive. I wanted to have a modal workflow similar to vim or tmux copy mode, but without having the overhead of using tmux... that's probably a lot more complicated than "I want Ghostty but with $X tweak". You can poke around in the repo to get a feel for what's involved if you want: https://github.com/milch/mistty

Which when I last used it they forced you to do. I'm assuming this has changed in the several years since?

^X^E in bash takes your current prompt and moves it to your $EDITOR.

for zsh:

  autoload edit-command-line
  zle -N edit-command-line
  bindkey '^X^E' edit-command-line

Have you tried `C-x e`

Just ask your agent to fork and remove it!

This is on our public roadmap actually. Would love to work with the community on this.

It's ok to recycle names once every thirty years :) Warp hasn't had a release in decades.
