It still is the terminal I trust most when spending long days connected to remote servers over SSH. It’s mature, packed with features, stable, and battle-tested. The downside? It has slowly become a bit heavy, and visually it no longer feels like a modern macOS application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>With AI-assisted development becoming part of my daily workflow, I started looking around again. Ironically, the future of terminals seems to be less, not more. Less clutter. Less configuration. Less UI getting in the way.

It is fast, clean, and refreshingly simple. But Ghostty eventually won me over. The integration with macOS is excellent. Scrolling feels natural. Text selection behaves exactly how I expect it to.

Small details, but the kind you notice hundreds of times per day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Will Ghostty replace iTerm2 for everyone? Probably not. iTerm2 remains a fantastic choice, especially for heavy SSH and infrastructure work.

You saw it in GitHub READMEs and the occasional piece of documentation, but most people never knew it existed. Now, thanks to AI, Markdown is finally becoming what it always should have been: a text-based PDF. The reason is simple - LLMs love it. And if you’ve ever tried getting a clean .doc file out of one, you already know why.","https:\u002F\u002Fmsatbsx.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com\u002Fnewsmarkdown.jpg","\u003Cp>For over twenty years, Markdown was the sensible option that nobody asked for. Tiny files, readable without special software, editable in literally any text editor, and capable of producing beautifully formatted documents. Yet people kept exchanging bloated Word files with enough hidden formatting to crash a small economy. Apparently typing # Title and **bold text** was considered an unreasonable burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rise of AI changed the game. LLMs don’t think in fonts, margins, or mysterious XML structures buried inside Office documents. They work with text. Markdown gives them structure without the baggage. Headings are obvious, lists are obvious, tables are mostly obvious, and there aren’t seventeen different ways to make something bold. As a result, AI tools generate cleaner Markdown, understand it better, and are far less likely to create a document that explodes when opened on a different computer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for Mac users, a small bonus.
