Alacritty is nice, but I still can't bring myself to replacing st with it...

It might sound like vomiting (at least to my German language brain), but urxvt is my choice.

xterm

Lucio Chiappetti 01-07-2020 03:56 AM

voted urxvt which however I use almost only for running alpine (due to unicode support). Use xterm for most other work.

I also discover Yakuake and with Konsole make the perfect partners as terminal emulators. Nice job!

rokytnji 01-13-2020 05:35 PM

Got familiar with using LXterminal lately.

Sakura. No contest.

I've tried getting Cool Retro Term to run in Puppy, but me and Qt5 do NOT see eye to eye.....and it's a lot of arsing about just for a terminal emulator.

I rather like Terminator, but I usually end up going back to Konsole.

I hope I'm not the only vote for Kitty.

As for st? I stopped using it when I found it that it didn't support colored emoji because it was using deprecated X APIs.

gnome-terminal
 
Used to be Konsole but its inability to recognize the "-geometry" argument (for years) or size a terminal according to the values in its config (ask for 80x24 and get 80x23) has put me off. I've switched to gnome-terminal even though I'm a KDE/Plasma desktop user.

urxvt mostly followed by roxterm. But I voted roxterm since it has been recently revived.
