Linux

Kitty as I need X11 support & I use the kittens it comes with too. Kinda which more applications used their drawing API to get images on the screen.

I don't care much for the terminal, but I noticed that I care a lot about my shell and the tools I use in it.

And the prompt - can't live without my ASCII bling-blink.

Alacritty in case Konsole breaks

Black box. If you use Gnome, highly recommended.

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 😅)

No love for xfce4-terminal around here?

I use what the DE usually provides, which is Konsole in Plasma. I don't need fancy stuff as I only do basic stuff in the terminal.

Foot and alacrity

Foot terminal on wayland, wezterm on MacOS

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.

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

Yakuake

xfce4-terminal - because it's easy to config, I like tabs, and it has good Unicode support.

Kitty the vast majority of the time but slowly using Ghostty more and more as it improves. Sometimes use Tabby and have been looking into Wave recently. I also use the x-terminal-reloaded package in the Pulsar editor for a dock terminal if im doing something in it at the same time.

Contour currently, but might consider that new one by the cosmic team. Contour is a bit minimalistic like alacritty or foot, yet it ligatures (a weird dealbreaker of mine). Goes well with zellij (pretty neat stuff, if u ask me, although breaking sixel is unfortunate, but they're working on it).

Used to use kitty and weztetm, the latter was overall less confusing (generally faster, no need to use quirks for ssh). And then wezterm broke on Wayland :D

On GNOME, I like BlackBox, though Prompt looks promising once it's stable.

I was an rxvt/urxvt fan for nearly 20 years, then Alacritty for a while. Nowadays, I just use gnome-terminal and I've been happy with it. Looking forward to trying Prompt though.

5 days later: Prompt is the bee's knees! Highly recommend for anyone wanting a snappy, feature-rich GTK4 terminal, especially if you work with containers.

Terminal is to much bloat. Use tty. /s

Can't live without Yakuake/Guake

Tmux for life

XFCE's. TERMIMAL set to linux, because something sets it to xterm, which does weird shit.

Kitty

Konsole

xterm on X11 (urxvt is also good but no true color support), foot on wayland

Tilix

konsole

Formerly I used Terminator, because I liked to split the screen. Then I moved to Kitty because having a GPU-powered terminal sound amazing, and now I'm using gnome-terminal because I'm trying to get back to simply and default.

Usually what ever best integrates with the DE (which is usually the default) but when that one sucks I fallback to Konsole

I like st and kitty depending on the task

I use kitty because its the hyprland default.

Konsole and xterm, although I haven't had to use xterm in a while. Actually, circa 1997 I used kterm, the predecessor to konsole. ;)

Straight up Linux ttys are also quite common for me. Most old school distros still let you escape to the terminal, with CTRL-ALT-F1 or similar. I haven't distro hopped in a long time, so I don't know if other distros still do this.

Sakura. I recently did a little survey of what was on hand for Debian Stable, and that's the one I liked best. The most important thing to me is right-click paste, because I do that incessantly.

Konsole for regular stuff, kitty for neovim.

I like Mate-Terminal; it's nicely customizable for my tastes and does the basics well. I also quite like LXTerminal for similar reasons.

But generally I use Konsole as I'm using KDE a lot now, and it's the default terminal.
