Same here whatever the DE has I would use.

Though most common answers from others would be alacritty or kitty which I see the use but feels advanced in configuration.

satanicllamaplaza,

I use alacritty and I’m very very new to Linux. I actually found that working on the config files for alacritty helped me a ton with learning how to approach config files in general. So advanced maybe but simple enough to teach new users a ton of useful things.

Alacritty (with screen if I need a multiplexor)

I’m partial to a bit of Tilix personality.

BrianTheeBiscuiteer,

Sounds like there’s a ton of options but this is the first one I’ve found that supports copy-on-highlight and that’s a must for me.

Alacritty (with tmux if I need a multiplexor)

BitSound,

You might also be interested in checking out Zellij, it’s like tmux with nice defaults

shartworx,

kitty. it’s the first thing I install on a new machine.

miningforrocks,

And why do you usw kitty? For me its the hyprland default terminal emulator and I never had problems with it so I stuck with it

shartworx,

I tested kitty and alacrity when I first found out about advanced term emulators. I liked kitty more, but I don’t remember why. I use the kittens all the time. It’s super convenient to play a video or display an image in the terminal. Kitty works on most distros. I wish it worked on windows, too, so I could use it at work.

If you’re allowed to install WSL on your work machine, they recently (I think recently) added GUI support for linux applications.

If you install kitty on a WSL distro, you can use it like any other windows program.

You can access your windows file system from /mnt/

I don’t really know how they do the virtualization, so you may lose a lot of the performance benefits that kitty has.

Very clunky workaround, but it’s an option.

shartworx,
QaspR,

Ditto on that.

Hellmo_Luciferrari,

Yakuake

Back when I was into tiling window managers and all that i’d use urxvt but now i just use gnome terminal. I can theme it nicely and it works well

turbowafflz,

Kitty, but I don’t have any particular reason it’s just there and it works

bobs_monkey,

I’m partial to terminator

Trent,

Wezterm. I love some of it’s features (quick search).

It literally doesn’t matter

infeeeee,

Black box. If you use Gnome, highly recommended.

Ashiette,

Konsole and Yakuake… It’s sufficient

atzanteol,

I’ve really grown to like yakuake. I always have a sorta “main terminal” where I have a tmux session going and now I do that in yakuake so it’s available on all desktops and easily put “out of the way” when I don’t need it.

CaptDust,

uxterm because fast.
