I know this probably comes up a lot and is liable to spark some debate, but I’m curious what the good options are for terminals. I’ve skimmed some reddit/lemmy posts about it and looked at a few options and I dunno how to decide between them because they all seem like they’re too narrowly focused on some particular use case. I’m just using it for general terminal stuff, nothing terribly fancy. I’m aware that there’s not one terminal to rule them all or anything, so I’m curious: what do you folks use, and more importantly, why do you use that over the (many) other options available?
Personally I’ve just been using konsole since it’s what came with kde and it seems nice and all, but I feel like I’m missing out on features I don’t even know about. One feature that might be nice is some kind of local LLM integration so I can get help on how to tinker with settings and such where i’m doing the tinkering instead of constantly tabbing out to duck.ai or w/e.
It’s not nice to make people read through half of your post to find out your question, sir.
Moreover, does the result produced by a search engine not be sufficient? Do you genuinely want Lemmy user’s opinions?
That’s why it was right there in the title? What else did you imagine I meant when I titled that post ‘the terminal question’?
And yes, I genuinely value the opinions of others (because they can explain why they hold them) over the opinions of AI-generated listicles and 10 year old reddit posts that offer no explanation. Is that not why you participate in internet forums like lemmy?
To me it wasn’t. The question would be “What terminals do you guys use?”
Please blame AI for internet search all you want, but there are ways to filtered AI-generated posts. For example, search on specific sites which you trust (I don’t know, lemmy.ml as the obvious choice, perhaps?).
Did you miss the important part of the comment you’re replying to?
Did you think ‘the terminal’ question meant something else, or are you just ignoring the whole thing because you’re dead-set on being an ass?
Dude, look, I gave you some advise on how to get information from search engines, and efficiently ask a question when that fails to deliver. If you don’t like it, simply walk away. Feel free to block me or downvote me too. Argue with me does you no good.
No, what you did is come into a productive post with a fair amount of serious engagement–and no apparent confusion about what I meant from anyone else–with an attitude and a snarky comment. I tried in my response to ignore that and sincerely engage with your question and you decided to double-down. So I’m gonna take that as a solid ‘yes’ re:dead-set on being an ass and go do something more productive with my time. Have a lovely day.
