I'm using Gnome on Fedora and was wondering what terminal everyone's using? When I had a Mac I really liked iTerm2 and was hoping to find a suitable Linux version, but so far no such luck. I've tried Guake but I can't get the F12 binding to work.

Preferably, I'd like to find a terminal that can display system stats the same way as iTerm2.

I like Alacritty with the Fish shell

Starship is really nice. I install it everywhere I use a terminal

I swapped alacrity for kitty and then foot, but same. Wezterm is nice to. But a little on the heavy side.

What made you move from each one? I run Kitty+Zsh on my main distro & Alacritty+fish on my gaming distro, but I can barely tell a difference.

I use ranger and images work better in kitty and more recently in foot as well. And foot is lighter and faster than both.

Add tmux to the mix and you've just described my perfect setup.

I go for Zellij nowadays, it comes out of the box about the same as I get tmux into after a bunch of tweaking. If you like barebones tmux though you might not like Zellij.
