macOS 11.4 , Alacritty 0.8.0 installed from homebrew 3.2.5 , although this should not matter because the question is mostly related to macOS UI.

What I want to do is something equivalent to Terminal.app's right click on icon > New Window sort of thing; Alacritty does not support windows.

On Linux, I'm used to launching new instance of alacritty with background option in dmenu.

On a mac, what would a similar action look like ?

    I must say I don't quite understand why this question was closed? Isn't Alacritty a tool primarily used by programmers, thus making it a valid question? Anyways, the answer saved my dumb butt, so thanks :) – Erling T Sep 25 '22 at 18:33
  • I use Alacritty as my main IDE for development, so I don't see why this question was closed? – Edenshaw Sep 30 '22 at 18:15
