Linux

Currently: foot

Especially for the server mode and the resulting fast startup of footclient.

I'm in the Alacrity+Zellij cargo cult

Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport's Terminal 2.

I like Terminator,
for it's ability to split one terminal window into as much as you want:
https://gnome-terminator.org/

In combination with Fish shell,
for it's auto completion + syntax highlighting:
https://fishshell.com/

And lastly, BobTheFish,
a nice git-aware powerline theme to go along with it:
https://github.com/oh-my-fish/theme-bobthefish

9term is what I use the most. Once you get used to the Plan9 way, you kind of like it. Sometimes I use Terminator as well. Konsole is like Terminator, both are good. They are both nicer than kitty for me. I tried kitty, went back to Terminator as it has menus to edit things, not just a text file.

What's my favourite terminal? The one that fits my desktop environment. When I used XFCE I used its terminal, when I used i3 I used kitty, and now I use blackbox on Gnome.

Terminology with the Nyan Cat cursor! :3 ^.^

Would be foot, but I'm using a font with ligatures so it's kitty

I do a ton of work on my homelab from my iPad with Blink Shell, and if I had to pick a favorite terminal, it would be Blink. I know this kinda falls outside the goal of your question, and with that in mind, after Blink, my favorite is Konsole.

I want to say Alacritty+zellij but have not even tried that lol.

Konsole. It just works, has profiles etc. I highly recommend to change it to "launch every window in same process" to avoid multiple windows, create a new desktop entry replacing "konsole" with "konsole --new-tab".

And also learn Desktop actions, its very cool!

I have a profile with different colors that starts in my Distrobox.

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
TryExec=konsole
Exec=konsole --new-tab
Icon=utilities-terminal
Categories=System;TerminalEmulator;
Actions=FedoraBox;root;ssh;
X-DocPath=konsole/index.html
X-DBUS-StartupType=Unique
X-KDE-AuthorizeAction=shell_access
X-KDE-Shortcuts=Ctrl+Alt+T
StartupWMClass=konsole
Keywords=terminal;console;script;run;execute;command;command-line;commandline;cli;bash;sh;shell;zsh;cmd;command prompt
Name=Konsole
GenericName=Terminal
Comment=Command line access

[Desktop Action FedoraBox]
Name=Distrobox
Icon=fedora-logo-icon
Exec=konsole --profile Fedora-Box

[Desktop Action root]
Name=root Terminal
Icon=folder-root-symbolic
Exec=konsole -e pkexec $SHELL #or define a shell

[Desktop Action ssh]
Name=ssh to X
Icon=folder-remote-symbolic
Exec=konsole -e ssh user@IP:PORT -i /path/to/key

Plasma will still display "open new window" which will instead open a new tab. Pressing Ctrl+Alt+t will also open a new tab, just as opening from Dolphin etc. Perfection!

Note that Konsole will pull in tons of dependencies, you may want to use XFCEs Terminal if you dont want that. Alacritty has no tabs which I find annoying (I hate windows).

QTerminal, xterm, and of course, the good ol' Linux console when I don't wanna do anything graphical.

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.
