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.

terminator was my go to for the longest time. Nowadays, I just use default GNOME Terminal. I just need things to work and not waste time tinkering.

iterm2 is near perfect on macOS, for Linux I usually use Alacritty or Foot

Favourite? Windows terminal.

Favourite Linux compatible? Vs code integrated terminal.

The one I actually use on Linux because viscose integrated terminal is not standalone? Konsole, just because it's the default In kde.

EDIT: may I know why I got downvoted? Just because I have an unpopular preference? Is this reddit?
