I've been using Alacritty for a while. It's fast and does everything I need.
Also using this one for years now, don't see a reason to change, although I see some "foot" in conjunction with wayland quite often.
kitty
+1
I like how the +1 of OG Reddit made it to Lemmy, but without the downvote hate of current Reddit. I've always seen those comments as more than just an upvote. An upvote can be a "+1", but also a "thank you for your contribution". A +1 is only a +1.
Also +1 for kitty
😻
Wezterm for me, I like the multiplexer that comes with it.
It works cross platform on every machine including windows with a single lua config and the documentation feels complete.
foot
I only changed the colors and the font to Fira Code.
+1 , works great on my wayland setup
I'm happy with Konsole. Don't think I've customized it any. TEs by and large just get the job done.
I looked quite a bit. Konsole is king for me.
My only complaint is the SSH profiles don't always work as intended, but that's just a theming thing.
Switched from alacritty after using it for a year or two to foot. Does what it's supposed to well, and not a bunch of other shit
Yeah, foot is really fast even without server mode.
I use Yakuake and Konsole since they came along with KDE Plasma. I've never really thought about using anything else, but maybe I should...
I like urxvt with i3
I don't do much customizing at the terminal. Currently I use alacritty, terminator, and st. Every few years I go through a searching-for-the-perfect-terminal and get frustrated at various shortcomings.
I use kitty and alacritty most important thing is editting the dot profiles in bash or zsh to get color codes for things and autocorrection.
I second kitty. I switched from urxvt to konsole to get support for ligatures. Then I switched to kitty because it also has ligatures, it's faster than konsole, and it's easier to configure with version-controlled files.
I don't do very much customization: font, line spacing, color scheme, and a couple of custom key bindings.
I use kitty. I don't use its multiplexer features, but I do use its emoji picker a lot.
Gnome Terminal when I'm in GNOME, Konsole when I'm in KDE, and plain old xterm for i3 and any other WM. These just feel like they fit just right into their respective DE/WM.
I'm using Tilix right now, mostly because it's the best of the very few that support touch scrolling. Since I'm using my Surface Pro as a tablet a lot of the time that's an important feature to me.
I haven't needed anything different than Konsole, it works great for me.
Gnome terminal. I'm just used to it.
Used to be termite for its minimalist feature. Now that it's gone I move on to Wezterm. Occasionally I use alacrity to connect to armbian nodes because it can't recognize wezterm. I hate kitty, not because of the terminal itself, but the dev. There is a snarky comment at github issue made by kitty's dev when people request for a termite-like feature. It drove me to uninstall kitty straight away.
I just can't drop st.
I'm using Alacritty. It's fast, it includes a Vi mode within its viewport/scrollback and it is highly customizable if you want to. But I haven't customized it much to be honest, since I mostly go straight into tmux, vim or ranger.
I like terminator
Urxvt, slight colorscheme changes to make background dark gray and foreground - light gray. alacritty might be "blazingly fast" but in my experience if terminal is slowing you down - you are doing something wrong. On the other hand urxvt uses 20 times less memory.
Been using foot for like 4 years.
I use Alacritty and have only themed its colors
Gnome Console since it is consistent with the rest of Gnome and works well enough.
Tilda, because I like how I can drop it down my screen anytime by pressing one key if I need to use it.
alacritty! only problem is no ligatures 😭
Kitty and wezterm do, they are pretty comparable to alacritty.
I'm another Alacritty user. It's been my daily driver for years at this point and I have no complaints
Alacritty + tmux OR urxvt
Mlterm because it's the only low latency terminal with modern features.
st from suckless all the way. Used it a couple of years now in conjunction with i3. I'm spawning a lot of terminals, doing a few commands and closing them often, so starting quick is a must.
Wrote a small patch that allows me to copy current directory from a terminal instance to primary selection with a keybinding. That allows me to quickly navigate to whatever directory that would be in another terminal or application.
Whatever comes with the DE. I don't use it enough to have a favorite.
xterm. It emulates a terminal. What else would I want a terminal emulator to do?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
