To print the image instead of the ascii logo, you should use the -i option: uwufetch -i

how can i use icat instead of viu to show images?

In 2.1, you can't. In the current development branch, image printing is not implemented, but in future I'll make sure to implement multiple image printing solutions

thanks, but how can i config uwufetch to show the logo in tmux, i have the
set -gq allow-passthrough on
in my tmux config

I think that happens because of the $TERM variable that kitty sets to xterm-kitty by default, but tmux changes it to tmux-256color.

You could try to change it back to xterm-kitty, but I don't know if it will work. Also I think there are already some issues opened on the viu repository.

The only solution I can give you is to implement another image printer (like icat, as you said), but now there's no real solution to that.
