Curious what terminal emulators people use/recommend? I’m using Alacritty myself, but want to try other ones

    Tilix is good. Or rather was. Development has kind of slowed down a lot except for translation updates.

    I used to use Kitty (Alacrity inspired, but different) for a while. Now I just use the default Gnome Terminal because it works and it’s preinstalled.

    Currently using wezterm, mostly because it supports font ligatures and alacritty doesn’t (I really like the fancy symbols haha). I do use the window management in wezterm, but I’d go back to tmux if alacritty implements ligatures.

    When I used Linux more than I do now I liked tilix, now on the rare occasions I do I get by with the built in gnome terminal.

    Not the question, but I really like windows terminal on windows, I use that for work all the time

    urxvt, like a lot of other folks here. Everytime I try something else I end up back at urxvt because there’s some feature that another terminal doesn’t support, fonts don’t render at the same size, etc.

      Seconded. It’s light and fast. You can add plugins that are useful. I use it with i3, and the tiling abilities of i3 with a simple terminal emulator is bliss, imo.

        I also use i3wm, and this makes such a productive and fast combination. Nearly perfect, simple, and maximizes screen real estate.

    Just Konsole. No reason for me to use anything else, really.

    Usually what my DE offers. In my main desktop I use st with my WM because it is very light.

    urxvt. I like the simplicity and ease of configuration with Xresources. I’ve been thinking about moving to st since urxvt is unmaintained but I can’t get feature parity atm.

    Used to use terminator and terminology but these days mostly wezterm.
