Fuzzel, app launcher and fuzzy finder has feature-packed 1.11 release
Fuzzel is a Wayland-native app launcher and fuzzy finder for Linux, inspired by Rofi and dmenu. The five-year-old Fuzzel project recently had a feature-packed 1.11 release. Here's a visual rundown of what's new. Instant filtering of huge lists 0:00 /0:08 1× ...
How does its startup time compare to other launchers (rofi or tofi for example)
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.
Love fuzzel—it’s pretty performant, even with a few thousand options to pick from.
noice! I just switched to using Fuzzel yesterday.
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.
