Favorite Terminal Emulator
I have recently jumped head first into the Linux space. I've installed Arch on my daily driver and I've become overwhelmed/overjoyed with my options. I'd like to hear from the community about your Linux favorites.
What is your favorite Terminal Emulator and what have you done to customize it?

I use kitty and alacritty most important thing is editting the dot profiles in bash or zsh to get color codes for things and autocorrection.
I second kitty. I switched from urxvt to konsole to get support for ligatures. Then I switched to kitty because it also has ligatures, it's faster than konsole, and it's easier to configure with version-controlled files.
I don't do very much customization: font, line spacing, color scheme, and a couple of custom key bindings.
How do you get modern kitty on ubuntu based distros? I'm on pop os and there are no ppas or packages within the last few years
Lunar Lobster has 0.26.5, which is from November. Coulda gone with something a little fresher, but it isn't that severely out of date.
I also use Kitty with the Fish shell and the Tide plugin. Looks quite fancy compared to the standard terminal.
