This terminal app crashes and freezes so much.

See original GitHub issue

No idea what the issue is, I’ve been using this program for over a year now and while I do enjoy it, there are so many bugs and crashes it’s getting to the point where it’s unbearable. Sometimes I can’t even ctrl + c to exit a process too. I only have 2 plugins installed which are both themes, so I don’t know what the issue is?

Here’s my config
