What's wrong with any terminal? Are those performance gains that important when handling a TUI? :-(

Edit:

Also, I don't see Gemini listed here:

https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/

Only Google Vertex AI (?): https://opencode.ai/docs/providers/#google-vertex-ai

Edit 2:

Ah, Gemini is the model and Google Vertex AI is like AWS Bedrock, it's the Google service actually serving Gemini. I wonder if Gemini can be used from OpenCode when made available through a Google Workspace subscription...

It's silly of them to say you need a "modern terminal emulator", it's wrong and drives people away. I'm using xfce4-terminal.

Gemini 3 via any provider except Copilot should work in Opencode.

Good. I'd rather use a tool designed with focus on modern standards than something that has to keep supporting ancient ones every time they roll an update.
