Below is 3 on terminal emulators and their ups and downs:

  1. WezTerm is a really good emulator as it has the ability to work across multiple platforms. Downside, Configuring Wezterm requires editing a Lua file.
  2. Alacritty scrolling on the alacritty terminal can be done directly through the mouse. Downside, Some say its latency is significantly worse than most other terminal emulators.
  3. Tabby or formally Terminus come with lots of features like smart tabs, ssh and more. Downside is he can require a lot of cpu.
