I’m currently using Core Shell, and since the update to Sonoma I’m getting a lot of text flickering, character distortion, and general “janky” behavior. It’s not updated for Sonoma, and I’m not religiously attached to it or anything - so I’m looking for an alternative.
I know people are talking about Warp, but by my understanding that requires me to make an account and log in to use it. That’s a dealbreaker for me. I’m also not interested in anything related to VSCode, even if it has a perfectly-functional terminal plugin.
I don’t mind paying for something good though. Recommendations?
I’d agree with looking at iTerm2 first. The GUI config is reasonably good. Integrate Eternal Terminal to replace auto-reconnect. The built-in tag and profile manager should be familiar enough–I don’t know anything about export/import.
kitty is a fun one if you’d rather use text configuration files and want to minimize resource usage.
I also use iTerm2, it seems enough for me. From time to time I have tried other terminal emulator apps but with some glitches here and there… I have not found any compelling reason to switch from iTerm, but I guess @webwalrus sure knows about iTerm, of course.
Yup, I’m aware of iTerm. I switched to Core Shell back a ways when I was trying SetApp because I wanted to try the apps they offered for various purposes, and I liked it - so I stayed.
iTerm2 is at the top of my list of apps to replace Core Shell with; I just figured there might be something awesome I wasn’t aware of.
I read quite a few good things about WezTerm lately. Personally I’m still using iTerm2 though. The ability to open profiles directly from Alfred is one of the reasons for me.
