Which terminal do you actually use every day?

[romanaOne]

I was looking at the, err, desktop show and tell thread in this forum and I noticed a lot of people's (Linux) screenshots included a terminal window. Are you a minimalist who uses xterm or do you want all the bells and whistles of KDE's Konsole?

I started with xterm but surprised myself by falling down the slippery slope of regular Konsole use: I got sick of mucking about with tmux, screen etc.; tired of goofing around with my .bashrc (or is it .profile?); tired of wondering which nerdfont I forgot to install to make powerline not look like line noise; bored of editing .Xresources to get a color scheme not best described as "solarized invisible text" or "tiny text on blinding white bg"....

I almost never use a terminal, ever.

What do you use? (Err, for coding/hacking activities, that is....)

Normally I don't care much which terminal is on a system. They all do the job more or less.

My main computer runs KDE5 as desktop environment (openSUSE Leap) so Konsole is there. On laptops and weaker machines I tend to use (Ubunut-)Mate and Mate-terminal.

Xterm is a bit too basic but I have used it in the past on small distros like Puppy Linux.
