Scrolling down works as expected
Note: ZelliJ is running inside a Ghostty terminal
Note2: ZelliJ is a terminal multiplexer, like tmux or gnu-screen

This was fixed in v2.1.97 — Fullscreen rendering inside Zellij now falls back to row-diff updates instead of hardware scroll, fixing display corruption. If you're still seeing this in the latest version, please comment with your version and repro and we'll reopen.
Thanks a lot! works great now
