      I never actually measured it, but I switched to fuzzel from wofi, and I can’t tell the difference in reaction time. To me it feels instant.

      I’ve tested them all and they all launch fairly immediately.

      I discuss some of the other feature differences here:

      I think for most people, Fuzzel will be the best choice, but compeitors offer unique features like Rofi-compatibility, HTML formatting support or the most important one: being written in Rust.

    I’m a huge fan of fuzzel - can’t compliment it enough.

    Fuzzel is great. I only wish it had a pinentry option.

      I should have read the article first – passphrases and pinentry are here

        That’s right! We are just waiting for someone to focus a pinentry/fuzzel script now. All the necessary features are there it seems.

          The script is there in the post, but I haven’t tried it yet. It would be nice if fuzzel had a message option, like rofi, so that key information could be displayed in the passphrases request; that s is what pinentry-rofi uses.

            There is a newish “placeholder text” option. It could be displayed there and disappear when typing starts.

            Yes. The message could be added to the prompt but it wouldn’t look the best.

              It might be nice to have a way of giving more context, which is what the message option was good for in rofi. Not knocking it though, I am a happy fuzzel user.

                You could add a feature request in the Fuzzel bug tracker. A screenshot of how it is used in Fuzzel could be helpful there.

                  Let me try for a pinentry script over the weekend first, to see how the placeholder looks.

    I’m still on bemenu since I used dmenu with dwm on X. I should probably check the others out.

    It looks like I have a great place to land if fzf ever starts to make my life difficult. Thank you!

      fzf has some unique features of its own, like multi-select. Maybe one day Fuzzel will add that.
