I used meld for a while, but switched back to tkdiff recently for my
git difftool default. Meld has been super flaky in recent Debian
updates, and sometimes it takes several minutes to start up (even on
small files); or it randomly decides to start up in a huge or tiny
font or with a tiny window size instead of its usual defaults. Meld is
great when it works, so I still use it now and then for merging files.
