- sccxy 11mo agoand terminal that comes with Windows is on the 4th place.
- alwillis 11mo agoYeah… Apple hasn't done much with Terminal.app since they inherited it from NeXT back in the late '90s. FWIW, it did get Powerline support and 24-bit color in macOS 26.
- krackers 11mo agoIn 10.10 they added scroll emulation and inline find.
- sitzkrieg 11mo agothe ranking weighed fluffy things i do not want indeed
- doug_durham 11mo agoYeah, I don't understand. I spend my day in the macOS terminal app and the thought "Hey I'd like a better terminal" has never occurred to me.
- toast0 11mo agoMaybe it's better now, but when I started my time on OSX, the built in terminal defaulted to "unlimited" scrollback, so if you were used to tailing giant log files, it would beachball pretty quick. I spent the rest of my time using iterm2 instead; it defaulted to a sensible scrollback length; and at some point it added a progress bar when you made a giant paste.
- cosmic_cheese 11mo agoPerhaps my needs are too pedestrian, but I don't believe I've ever needed anything more than what the macOS Terminal app is capable of. I've tried the vaunted iTerm2 and Ghostty among others but they never stuck.
