eDex-UI is the perfect terminal emulator when you bring your really old ThinkPad out in public...not that I go outside, I use arch.

You should try wezterm someday. Written mostly in rust, the rest in c/c++. It's config is written in lua script. GPU accelerated. Every possible feature that terminal emulator can have is built-in. Almost every possible color scheme is built-in (285 pcs). The best support for unicode/emoji I have ever seen.

@Aleksandar Milović Sir, please take your list and get out of here.

I'm a computer science tutor and I actually love Yakuake. I use it for running marking scripts on my students' work, where the script launches their work in my web browser and hides the terminal automatically, then I just have to hit Meta+F12 then enter to pull up the next person's work. It's a bit niche, but damn it works well!

For st (and various other suckless programs) you can use the xresources patch to have dynamic settings, without needing to recompile them. You can also use signals to… signal those programs Xresources have changed and they should reload them. I think you could use that kinda stuff for the whole change-color script for DT-OS

I had to watch to make sure you were just kidding about my beloved kitty! Whew. Sigh of relief. You put it in its proper tier. I've been enjoying these tier lists. Thank you!

One important note: ST does *not* handle Unicode as well as Alacritty. I regularly work with Ancient Greek and other non-English text in my terminal emulator, and Alacritty handles it perfectly. In fact, it is just about the only terminal emulator that does. This is the same in every GNU/Linux distribution in which I have tried it (chiefly Debian and Manjaro) and FreeBSD. You were, of course, right about Unicode in URXVT and XTerm. Both of them fail to handle much of what lies outside of unaccented Latin characters. Thanks for another excellent review video, DT :)

I've been switching over to Alacritty as my primary terminal, but I will say that Yakuake is awesome for a quick-use terminal when I'm on KDE. I agree that it isn't useful in a tiling window manager, but in a DE, being able to have that quick drop down terminal to run a quick command (while being able to use the rest of my screen), is really handy sometimes. Very good video as always!

I went back and forth between alacritty and kitty a couple times, but finally settled on kitty and have been with it past couple years. They are both great and very comparable, and I do like alacritty's yaml config better. I don't even remember exactly what it was that lead to my decision, I think it was something to do with some font rendering issue I was having at the time.

@krux02

xfce-terminal also supports the drop down like yakuake (I used yakuake over a decade ago on kde3). It is a command line option "xfce4-terminal --drop-down", map that to a key in the dektop environment, and your are ready to go.

Personally, I use lxterminal, and I satisfied with it. The problem with Alacritty and Kitty is that striving for performance, they use their own renderers and disregard xft font settings of subpixel rendering, hinting and antialiasing, and because of that some glyphs (like m and w in JetBrains Mono, for example) look really shitty. The author of Kitty is aware of this issue, but he refuses to fix it, because this would hit the "performance" of the emulator. So, this is the reason I don't use these terminals, because I really appreciate my eyes and I don't want them to spill out because of shitty fonts.

Same here, but I also use LXTerminal and ST because they do NOT require a recent enough GPU to run, or to run with good performances, try to run Alacritty for example on an old ThinkPad SL510, you can't. You have to disable GPU acceleration with a launch option and the performances instantly drops significantly lower than any other terminal emulator out there. And because I like having a consistent setup for all my installations, no matter the hardware : Be it ancient and crusty or really modern and fast, I use what works best on the old crusty computers that I consider good on my main computer too. This also makes it so that my main computer feels stupidly fast, as it uses almost the exact same setup that I use on a computer from 2004.

Hey DT, this is unrelated to the topic of this video, but I would like to talk a bit about the Moonlander keyboard. Thou made multiple videos for these kinds of keyboards, the one for the ErgoDox EZ, the one for the Moonlander unboxing, the one for the Planck, and the one where you explain why you are using these types of keyboard (and let us not forget about the trackball mice!). As far as I know (I will talk for the Moonlander keyboard here), thou are still using a slightly modified version of the original layout, right? If this is the case, I may only encourage you to check the new version, it dropped very recently, a brand-new firmware update, and it is pretty cool, as it removes the need for the Oryx key (so you can put any other key on here), fixes a few issues, changes the default startup sounds, and adds some new functionalities such as a key to capitalize only a single word, which I found very useful whilst coding. I also wanted to ask, have thou ever considered using an alternative keyboard layout, or do thou think it is not worth it for thou? When I received my Moonlander keyboard (that I bought also partially thanks to the videos thou have made), I experimented with more than a hundred of different variations of different layouts, until I found the best one for me (anyone can find them by searching "atmo" with "anonymous layouts" checked, and the one I use daily by unchecking the "anonymous layouts" button). Because of the alternative layout that I use (a slightly modified version of the ISRT keyboard layout, and with entirely custom layers), I had a lot of free keys that were never being used on my Moonlander, and for the longest time I wondered what I could use them for. Recently, whilst re-configure the Qtile window manager, I had an idea: I can simply use these buttons as one-key shortcuts that make it so that I don't have to press multiple keys, or even remember more obscure ones. I use them for program menus, custom scripts, window management, desktop/group management, and a lot more, and I found they really improve my usage of window managers under GNU/Linux. I think thou could perhaps enjoy trying something like this out, if you can find a use for it. Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language, I am actually French! Baguette !

Konsole "monitor for silence/activity" is a blessing for so many tasks, and like many KDE apps is extremely customizable.

I'd like to recommend wezterm for your consideration. I think you should find it quite comparable to alacritty and kitty. Also, cool-retro-term was missing from the list.

Last time I tried it, it was greedy towards hotkeys. Like there is a setting that supposed to disable hotkeys, but it still didn't disable them all. Which means if you use something hotkey heavy (like FAR manager), you are going to have bad times. I remember it was being reported to their Github repo, so they might've fixed it.

GREAT LIST! I love the rankings. Absolutely Correct Info. Some of my favorites are: LXTerminal [GOOD], Xterm [MEH], Yakuake [GREAT], and... Lilyterm (lightweight and simple)

I was waiting for this one

xterm originally was a demo program from the early days of X - a proper terminal prog was expected to be written later but as its longevity showed it was good enough for many

There is one termnial that is missing that I really like: Tilix. It's quite handy and in my opinion better than Gnome's default terminal.

Thank you DT. I'm new to Linux, and I love your channel. I have MX Linux using their XFCE distro. It comes with the XFCE term. I also have the XTerm terminal.

I use the exact same setup. Qtile is my favorite window manager and alacritty is my favorite terminal once I set it up the way I liked.

I use Bismuth on kwin as my window manager, so I have tiling built in, and I use Yakuake. I really like being able to have it drop down with the press of a button no matter what desktop I'm on and what I'm currently working on. I was actually surprised to see it as it's own terminal emulator, since I consider it more of an extension to konsole, even if it really isn't. It's reall useful on my hacked chromebook with a really small screen, where opening a second window for a terminal on a single screen makes everything unusable, and I'm not used to constantly switching desktops, so a drop down is faster.

yakuake, is my terminal of choice, granted I don't use a tiling window manager but having one drop down with a hot key at any given moment is just useful. For example, when an application misbehaves you can launch it in terminal then open the terminal again to check up on it quickly, same for tasks running in the background, it just works really well for me. It's also the same terminal that exists in the entire kde desktop which is also convenient as I am quite firmly into the ecosystem.

You can literally make it anything you want...so, depending on your willingness, it can be absolute crap or the absolute best! I think I would have put it in GOOD for that reason (cuz you decide where it goes)

I was mildly surprised that you rated Xterm so low, but it set me thinking. I've used XTerm since I first saw a Unix window manager back somewhere around 91 or 92, so thirty years ago. So maybe my fondness for it is just familiarity rather than genuine utility? Ah, well your one concrete complaint was it not handling Unicode "out of the box" so I sort of wondered if I'd tinkered with the example I'm, using, but no it's virginal from the distro. And it handles Unicode just fine. I've got four on the screen right now. One is bit because it's running bpytop so I can keep an eye on things. One isn't so big but has larger text, I've been in a directory cleaning up some cruft. The third is a red on buff colour scheme because it's doing a remote log-in and the last is old-school amber on black to remind me that I'm root in there. So no, I do not concur and see no reason to consider changing any time soon! 😀

I made a quick memory test on some terminals. I was interested in Konsole, Kitty, qterminal, Urxvt. on average it seems Konsole instance uses 1,5 % of my memory, Kitty as qterminal 1,2%, urxvt 0,3%... I didnt want to do cpu tests cos I dont know how to do them properely, but the memory results are quite consistent.

Xfce-terminal can be used as a drop-down terminal too, like Yakuake. It was what I was using most often and imo it is better than the other simple not fancy ones. On Plasma I would use Konsole and Yakuake, for example, but I prefer the Xfce way. One more simple application in place of two that doesn't lack anything important in my opinion.

Good all-rounder: Tilix - not great, not terrible, has tabs, quake mode for DEs. Not GPU accelerated but that can be useful as a terminal when your nvidia drivers go real wrong In the same tier as Alacritty & Kitty: foot. Not GPU accelerated as well, haven't used it much but it seems like really good stuff. Also: I'd put Alacritty to the Meh tier. It just has so many issues it becomes really annoying at some point. Side note: tmux is fine but if you're using a super fast GPU-accelerated emulator, your bottleneck is probably tmux now, so when it comes to GPU-acceleration you *kinda* need the tabs/splits to be handled by the terminal itself.

I just miss Tilix in the list, and I'm sure you'd put in the OK tier as well lol

One thing I've always wondered about terminal emulators is why they don't support modifier keys on function keys, e.g. alt-F1 or ctrl-F3, and also why you can't use the numpad at all as separate keys. Would be really convenient in terminal emacs. According to invisible island there's 64 keys \kf0 through \kf63, can those be used or bound directly somehow?
