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.

I'm reconsidering my terminal emulator and was curious what everyone was using.

I recommend black box. https://flathub.org/apps/com.raggesilver.BlackBox it is the nicest and most intergrated terminal on gnome and I use it daily and have zero issues

Oooh, this looks perfect for me. However how do hyperlinks work? I can see that they are styled and have a unique cursor but I can't for the life of me figure out what I need to do to actually activate them. I've tried click, Ctrl-click, Shift-click, Alt-click 😅

https://gitlab.gnome.org/raggesilver/blackbox/-/issues/297 it could possibly be this bug. I am not entirely sure. My use case does not feature many hyperlinks so sorry if I got ya excited for something you can't use

Ah yeah. I was trying with ls. That's a shame but not a major issue for me. Hopefully they fix it soon. Sounds like it should be fairly easy as it is mostly implemented.
