   Here is how it looks in Alacritty 0.16.1 (1) on the same machine with the same configuration. I would strongly prefer to use the Terminal.app, however.

   @agladysh I had the same issue and switched from using Terminal to iterm2, and everything looks so great. I'd highly suggest that you do so.

   brew install iterm2

   MacOS Terminal.app <= 2.14 is currently not working as it does not support true color and opentui does not have a fallback yet. It will come at some point, but for now there is no other way than to either upgrade to MacOS Sequoia (which is why it works for @rekram1-node) or use a terminal that supports true color.

   I'm on Sequoia and using Terminal 2.14 and have the same issue! how to fix it? I would rather stay with stock terminal for now.

   The only option you have for now then is to upgrade MacOS to Tahoe.

    Is that a guess or a real solution?

    Not a guess, I know that the built-in terminal in Tahoe got improvements like true color support.

    I can confirm that macOS Tahoe solved it

    This wasn't working properly for me even under macOS 26. I was able to fix it by telling Terminal to declare its terminal type as "xterm-256color" in Profiles -> Advanced -> TermInfo. I'd previously had it set to "xterm". (This also has the side-effect of causing terminal to set COLORTERM=truecolor in the environment, which actually makes it take the truecolor rendering path.)
