I'm not an electron hater, but a terminal in electron sounds like a parody.
"built on an open web framework...."
hard pass then. Why the hell would I want to open a browser instance for a terminal???
Unfortunately this terminal emulator uses electron, but otherwise looks nice
No Zsh support for now, and maybe no user fonts?
And a warning: it's got telemetry on by default.
it's got telemetry on by default.
Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so
Backed by VC, so you know they're just waiting for an exit
Electron is a DEALBREAKER!
Cross platform, a long as it's mac or linux lol.
Are you implying that there is anything else that matters?
Plan9
What the fuck does it actually do, and what is one use case?
Well it collects data from you, and one use case for your data is allowing a nice 💰 exit for the venture capital -backed company building it.
Other than that, not a whole lot that's worth yet another "powered by open web standards" Electron piece of shit
lol, no thank you
Quickly edit code on a local or remote machine with the same editor that powers VSCode.
so it's vscode, but not. you can just install an extention to get remote abilities.
I … Wha…. WHY??
I’ll have a look to this, a VScode editor like for remote can be handful sometime
so... vscode? you can install an extention for remote connections (made by MS)
Vscode even has a terminal built in haha
Wezterm or death. I would have chosen Alacritty, if pasting in Vim wasn't broken.
