What are the differences between all of these terminals?
If you’re occasionally using them, there aren’t any.
If you’re excessively using them, there are many.
Could you highlight a couple, I’m kinda in between with my terminal usage…
Sure, I can do that.
- If you’re looking for something lightweight, go for
storurxvt. These are Xorg-only. - If you want to configure it via GUI,
xfce4-terminalis the middle ground for lightweight and feature-rich. If you are on KDE,konsolewould suffice. You can use these on Xorg and Wayland. - If you want to work with multiple panes in a single window,
terminatoris your friend. Used this on Xorg but not sure about its Wayland compatibility. - If you want GPU acceleration and more features,
kittyandalacrittyis out there. Both should work on Xorg and Wayland. - If you want something like st but pure Wayland,
footis the best lightweight terminal emulator. My current personal favourite.
Fucking legend!
Pretty sure I’m using konsole right now, whatever it is, it came pre-installed on my distro.
Might check out foot and kitty, what I’m using is working right now, but always nice to look into different options.
- If you’re looking for something lightweight, go for
Thought out choice but disappointing nevertheless:
My stance for now is that Ghostty will not support sixels.
