Terminal emulators
Terminal emulators
Curious what terminal emulators people use/recommend? I'm using Alacritty myself, but want to try other ones

What makes alacritty your choice? Been away from linux desktop for a while but this year I've been converting more and more stations to KDE Neon (yes I know, it's not intended to be 'stable') with great results. Back in the day eterm did everything I could want in a console but mainly used for background logs or miner status stuff. What's new?
I enjoy the configurability of alacritty, but noticed there's been some issues with certain devicons showing up on neovim when I use it. That's pretty much it. I'm not one to care too much about performance. My preference is something that looks nice since I'm going to be spending a lot of time looking at it.
I'm with you on looking nice thing. That's why I used eterm with a very long command line to become a part of the wallpaper essentially. Nothing wrong with looking good.
I just installed it to check it out. Only runs as root but it seems plenty snappy. I'm not hung up on performance or anything but any kind of lag from a terminal would be unacceptable but hey it seems fine. Thanks for your post, I'll definitely mess with it.
