No

Yes

Konsole
>Why?
It's good, it's fast, it's part of KDE, it looks nice, it has a ton of features. Also blur.

>Perfect terminal emulator
No tabs, no builtin muxing, no embedded images. GPU acceleration is a gray area, it sounds nice but you probably don't need it. ZModem upload and download is a nice feature as well. mosh integration would be nice, and maybe an automatic KIO slave URL translation system.

Gnome Terminal because thats what my debian came with

What terminal emulator do you use?
urxvt
Why?
muh bloat

What's your perfect terminal emulator?
one that gets colors from Xresources and doesn't get in my way
Tabs?
just use tmux windows lol
Builtin multiplexing?
just use tmux panes lol
Embedded images?
yes
GPU accelerated?
my gpu is my cpu lol

>What terminal emulator do you use?
mlterm
>Why?
because muh bloat and also i'm not a basedboy cuck who enjoys upwards of 15ms of input lag (cough, cough, urxvt)

>What's your perfect terminal emulator?
>Tabs?
A good plus, but not needed.
>Builtin multiplexing?
no.
>Embedded images?
yes. (mlterm has this)
>GPU accelerated?
yes

Qodem is all you need, anything else is bloat.

Console editors are unnecessary bloat. If I need a terminal I open a new tty session and use it.

urxvt. Anything else is just silly.

props bro, i'd use that too but for network administrator job that i do at least three different terminals at one screen are a must.

Most *nix systems support more than one tty session. Combine with three monitors you're good to go.

Also screen or tmux are your best friends.

personally i use lxterminal with tiling wm. switched from urxvt because it has some issues with sessions on remote machines - mostly 256 colors

urxvt+tmux masterrace

tried this and that.
i would bet on vim as solution for multiple terminals on tty, but i find i3wm good middle ground.

I don't know how you can do it desu. The level of bloat introduced by any WM that tries to manage for you is unacceptable in my opinion. The most I would even dare to use is like dwm. Small enough that 1 person can read the entire source in a day and change it as needed on the fly.

- ubuntu terminal and mintty
- it werks

>perfect terminal emulator
- non bloat
- xterm-256color
- sixel support
- no tabs or multiplexing, I use tmux
- treat powerline chars as background so I can have background transparency without powerline looking weird

> What terminal emulator do you use?
Konsole, Terminal.app
> Why?
it has all the features i need
> What's your perfect terminal emulator?
the one i'm using is ok
> Tabs?
yes
> Builtin multiplexing?
there's no need in built-in multiplexing if you can use tmux or screen
> Embedded images?
why not
> GPU accelerated?
it sound like something nearly impossible for me, to have a terminal with GPU accelerated text output *and* with compositing support (like, if i would like to have transparent background or even blur)

>basedboy
>cuck
just you fucking get out, Jow Forums is your place

>ubuntu
>non bloat

lmao

st

>xterm-256color
urxvt is less bloated than xterm

t. assblasted archfag

are you autistic? xterm-256color refers to the capabilities it should support, because terminals with those capabilities usually set $TERM=xterm-256color

well only reason is what makes me more productive and what kind of workflow fits my cognitive basis better.

used urxvt for a long time, currently using kitty and its pretty nice

st
>why?
because I am autistic

Which autists calls these emulators?

XFCE4 terminal works perfectly for me

Terminator, for the multiplexing.

Konsole is the endgame terminal, it's impossible to get better than this

or you can just install tmux

>network manager
>i3
retard

tilda + xvt/rxvt/urxvt/stterm
or Tilix

gee sorry I'm not autistic and don't like connecting to networks with fucking config files

this except st
is there a good sixel patch? one i found on github doesnt apply correctly with the latest st dev branch

i use terminator..
I really want something like iterm but fucking loonix cant grant me that :(

checked and confirmed

>connecting to networks wirelessly
>using config files

retard, what is ethernet

actually i can live without nearly any features
all i need is low latency and dark background, so I use uxterm

It annoys me that it doesn't seem possible to get key latency as low as the virtual terminal on anything, maybe because of X on the way. I oughta try wayland sometime see if it's an improvement.

>What terminal emulator do you use?
Hyper
>Why?
Because fuck you, it's web technology which means it's good

>What's your perfect terminal emulator?
Hyper
>Tabs?
Of course

>Builtin multiplexing?
What is multiplexing
>Embedded images?
Probably
>GPU accelerated?
Yeah I reckon so.

Kitty on OSX for work. Linux I've stopped caring and just use xterm or whatever is basic, potentially Kitty if it has a release for the distro.

>Tabs?
use it quite heavily with kitty
Builtin multiplexing?
no, I rarely use that shit in tmux to begin with, in fact I only use tmux to run something long term and check on it anyway
Embedded images?
kitty supports this, but I don't really use it unless my monitor is cluttered and cramped
GPU accelerated?
yes, because iterm was slow as hell no matter what I did, kitty is lightning fast by comparison

True. Speaking of, which is better - tmux or GNU's screen?

iTerm2
It does all the things you list except I don't know what multiplexing is as regards a terminal so maybe?
I like it because it gives me a nice popup terminal when I need to do something, it is energy efficient, and it renders text correctly on a hi-dpi display.

for most people, tmux

this

>GNU vs non-GNU
The choice is obvious.

>there's no need in built-in multiplexing if you can use tmux or screen
I'm not so sure about this. Built in multiplexing can do things that tmux and screen can't, like sane, native scrolling using the mouse wheel or dragging your cursor up while selecting text, or selecting text from just one terminal without making it fullscreen.

st, because I've made it into exactly what I wanted.

Alacritty because it's the best and fastest and uses a simple config file that just werks

kkkde master race

>mosh integration
What did he mean by this?

>What's your perfect terminal emulator?
Something that runs my preferred shell and that can display text so that I can actually read it (fuck xterm).

This does it really matter? I just use mate terminal usually

redpill me on suckless my dude

use dwm
st is kinda retarded
but use dwm

>Its the closest to what I actually want

Yeah, looking good naked right.

Anything from custom titles like Konsole already supports with plain ssh to keeping a scrollback buffer.

guake lol

>urxvt
>GPU accelerated
no
Tilix
Built in multiplexing.

Try kitty it also has built in multiplexing plus GPU acceleration.

Based Pajeet BTFOing alashitty Rustlets!

tmux has internal text selection and you can pipe it to xclip
whats retarded about st? has fewer bugs than urxvt

st
simple, just works

>tabs
bloat
>multiplexing
i have a windowing system for that
>embedded images
kys numale
>gpu accelerated
all of the above
