I also gave Hyper a solid go but found the native Terminal and tmux/tmuxinator gives me all the same (worthwhile) utility without some bugs related to pane management and history preservation. With Hyper I regularly experienced history being cleared and lost even in the same pane/window, but I couldn't force replication which made it more frustrating. Also, it has some strange feature (?) that can spawn a browser window inside the terminal but I can never figure out how to escape it.

I agree that my terminal shouldn't crash. I handle so many fundamental parts of my workflow in terminal so it has to be stable and efficient.

In terms of crashes, it's amazingly stable. We do have a few bugs with some glyphs still, but please give it a try!
I have given it a solid try and I've contributed to the hyperline package. But I've had panes crash/go unresponsive kind of frequently. This isn't to say I won't use it, just that I think I still prefer Terminal. One person's opinion is all. :)
