I use Hyper because it’s pretty simple to setup the way you want it and carry the config across OSs.

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.

I don't have one specific as my favorite anymore and currently use Konsole from KDE. If you like tinkering with files and want it highly customizable through configuration files instead a gui, then probably Kitty is the best (and the closest to being my favorite). Alacritty is also a good one, but its quite simple and lacks some features in my opinion. I didn't try too many, but these 3 are the top three I would consider using in the ~~feature~~ future.
Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport's Terminal 2.
I'm in the Alacrity+Zellij cargo cult
guake and conemu
I like terminology
It’s quick, gpu accelerated, can natively display images, and I’m not sure what else.
I don’t use the rest of enlightenment de but have stuck with terminology for years
What are the benefits if Gpu-accelarated terminals? From my understanding, that's a really negligible difference.
Alacritty because I like how it handles bitmap fonts and I need bitmap fonts in my life.
kitty terminal + zsh shell, two fast and customizable tools
iterm2 is near perfect on macOS, for Linux I usually use Alacritty or Foot
QTerminal, xterm, and of course, the good ol' Linux console when I don't wanna do anything graphical.
Wezterm. It has all the features one could wish for
Call me lazy if you like, but I use GNOME terminal. Comes as standard with my distro. Does what I need. Supports fonts that aren't pixel fonts and has various look and feel tweaks accessible by GUI if I really want to get in there. I do that once after every fresh install and it's been a while since then.
Given that I loved a bit of Quake back in the day, you'd think I'd like drop down terminals like ddterm and Guake (which might not work on Wayland?), but weirdly no. I like it in a box I can move around.
I also keep the ancient xterm installed just in case and for when I get nostalgic for the old pixel fonts, but it's not exactly my go-to.
Kitty, cute name and logo
