UPDATE: After making this video, many of you recommended WezTerm and I decided to give it a try. It's awesome, so thank you! Though Alacritty works great, WezTerm is a bit better in my opinion. I've added a ~/.wezterm.lua config file to the repo: github.com/josean-dev/dev-environment-files/blob/main/.wezterm.lua. This is all you need to change to have pretty much the same setup as the one shown in this video, but with WezTerm instead. Thanks!

Hey guys! I’ve been using Alacritty recently and have really enjoyed it because its simple and suits my nvim/tmux workflow well. That said, there’s other great options out there I haven’t tried yet like Kitty, Wezterm or Warp. I might look into them in the future, but use whatever works well for you! Hope you enjoy the video!

I would guess because shortcuts change from application to application but commands stay the same. So in Kitty the shortcut for clear is CMD-K, Alacritty, it's whatever, but clear is always clear. I haven't found a shortcut for saving and quitting nevim yet, but it is worth noting that you don't need to use :w and :q separately, or even ':w :q' you can happily just do :wq - that's muscle memory I've had since at least the '90s

Better than pissing around with Alacritty (and its jackass primary dev), tmux, and countless hours of dotfile hacking is using a non-trash terminal made for modern computers from the start. Tabby is what I'm running these days. It's not lightweight. It's not a teeny little 300 byte C file. It's Electron based with all that implies. But if you have a computer made from parts manufactured in the past 15 years or so this shouldn't be an issue. It looks amazing, has an incredible amount of features, and every single time I go looking for an option it's just RIGHT THERE. It has integrated SSH and TELNET. It understands that CTRL-C and CTRL-V copy and paste. It still hasn't figured out CTRL-A should be "SELECT ALL OF THE TEXT ON THIS LINE" but whatever. Themes out the wazoo. Settings are handled with a super intuitive menu that doesn't require trawling through man pages to understand. It's almost like they made a terminal for computers made after the turn of the century or something. Weird idea, isn't it?
