One year ago I switched from iterm2 to warp (https://www.warp.dev/) and it is still to this day one of the best new tooling addition that improved my life. Ability to just use mouse to select a piece of command to edit, much better search than the default bash/zsh, AI autocompletion, and much more. And it just looks damn cool

Oh I must note that this is a very much a consumer-friendly abstraction. If you like emacs and vim, this might not be up your taste. It's like an apple product in a world of terminals

The main argument is that they might be logging your commands (including keys, secrets, passwords that you type) and then tying it to your email etc.. 

But I think I read an explanation on what they do and don't do on their website. Ofcourse that doesn't mean anything, but I think it's simple enough to monitor traffic to validate this claim. They wouldn't risk it. So yeah I don't get the fuss with signing up either

I completely agree with this. 
I started using warp(dot)dev over a year ago too, and has become one of my favorite tools as a dev. 

People have reservations on signing up to use a terminal, but why should that stop anything?

yep yep, everyone who I shilled it to but refused to use it had the same argument. Like "will it log all my commands on their server too?". And I can understand this sure. They do however try to explain why they chose this on their website, and honestly I never felt any kind of pressure on using their cloud features beyond the initial sign up

Some good info on privacy and security, and also a FAQ section answering your concern

I want to believe but couldn’t get over signing into a terminal 😵‍💫

Have you tried warp btw? Curious what are your thoughs compared to alacrity and kitty

i was about to switch to alacrity, but switched to kitty after looking at the github issues and how badly all the people are treated there. it's actually hilarious.
