From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Why should I use wezterm or alacritty and not Terminator?
The answer to your question and mine should be pretty much the same. Because everyone has different preferences and requirements.
I think you misunderstood. I want to know what requirements you have, that are not met with wezterm. I understand, that some people like different software, but this is a huge github repo for a terminal written with electron. Just confuses me
