Started to use #Ghostty but now running into TERM errors when I connect to remote machines. Very annoying and the fixes are also very annoying. 😫
Be annoyed with me and read the explanation:

@bryan yeah, I ran into that, and I think I just set it to `xterm-256color` and forgot about it. But, it was annoying and I think I meant to get back to it at some point and actually try to understand it.
@swelljoe Yeah that works. But then I'll lose some of the extra cool bits Ghostty can do. Going to do it the hard way for the older boxes I connect to:
`infocmp -x xterm-ghostty | ssh YOUR-SERVER -- tic -x -`
@bryan I'm often doing tmux, anyway, so I think I lose any terminal fanciness in the translation, regardless. I never looked into it enough to know. I just know ghostty is fast, and that's enough for me. But, I probably should figure it out at some point.
