I’ve always just used konsole or gnome terminal. Never really looked into what else is available. Tried cool-retro-term the other day, but the novelty wore off pretty fast for me.
Curious to see if there’s a terminal someone swears by and refuses to use anything else.
I like the slide-down ones so Guake or ddterm (a Gnome shell extension). I always remap caps lock to control and the “Caps Lock” + tilde shortcut to get to the terminal is such a part of my muscle memory that I think I’d lose my mind trying to change at this point.
Konsole, but only because I’m on Plasma. I really don’t rven like it that much, but… well, it’s a terminal, it does terminal things so I’m more than OK with it.
On xfce, I would youse xfce-terminal.
anything is fine as long as basic stuff works - like ctrl/shift+insert (tho it’s a thing I had to manually setup in Konsole 😅)
I primarily just use whatever the distro has(gnome terminal most often), though I use iTerm2 with omz on my work MacBook and really enjoy the customizability with tabs, panes, hotkeys, and especially triggers.
Can anyone recommend a good equivalent on Linux?
I see a lot of others listed here with many features. I’m open to trying a few to find a good alternative, though I don’t want to move all my eggs to a basket only to find out it doesn’t support some feature.
