Personally I've been using gnome-terminal for quite a while and was fairly happy except that I needed to maintain gnome-terminal and libvte patches to get notification support. Having some sort of notification when a long-running command completes is very important to my productivity.

I've been using Konsole but not fully happy.

• No hyperlink support.
• Selection is lost when my prompt updates (I have the time so that I know when I have started commands).

I've been looking at other options but none-of them feel quite right.

Alacritty:

• No unlimited scrollback.

Kitty:

• Selection bug with updating prompt.
• No unlimited scrollback.

Wezterm:

• No unlimited scrollback.

Terminator:

• Has this terminal group bar that I can't get rid of.
• No notification support.

I realize that I am probably going to have to make a compromise (probably just go back to gnome-terminal with patches) but I figured it would be interesting to see what everyone else was using and make sure I didn't miss something.

To me the important features are:

1. Unlimited scrollback.
2. Notification support (ideally with the 777 Notify command, but if the terminal bell can make a notification that is fine).
3. Clean UI. (I don't use tabs so need to be able to hide the tab bar)
4. Hyperlink support.
