I think there is a lot of potential for creativity in the terminal space, and warp has some cool ideas. I'd honestly even be willing to pay directly for a terminal if it went above and beyond in terms of efficiency and functionality. Unfortunately I cannot try warp, as I don't have an osx machine. I understand that cross platform (in particular Linux ports) is a challenge, and I usually don't expect that from consumer products or open source projects. But a VC backed product made specifically for developers should have a Linux port imo, especially if your business model is to impress developers and get them to convert their teams.
We do want to support linux once we get the product experience right. We decided to build in Rust and set up a UI framework because we wanted to make it easier for us to port to Linux.
For now, every platform we support entails additional engineering overhead that takes away from getting to product-market fit. Once there, we will invest resources into supporting Linux, Windows, and the Web.
