For my work I use a lot the command line and specially Bash. From time to time, I have to use Windows, and I've been often lost by using PuTTY or even SSH over PowerShell. I just found Tabby which I'm able to install on my Linux, Mac and Windows and simply sync my configuration files with Syncthing then the magic happen!! :)
Tabby is a resource hogging terminal that does nothing different in comparison to other terminals that provide the same function. Sure, it looks prettier than most terminals, but, I prefer performance to looks.
It's a really beautiful terminal with a LOT of features. BUT, like with many/most "modern" things: It's beautiful, yes. But also a slow ressource-hog. Even scrolling through the settings is done with what feels like 30fps at best. In a GUI in 202x?
Don't get me wrong, it's really great. And a lot of work and love went into this. If you just don't care for that sluggish-y feeling and the extra waste on ressources. For a terminal-app, which is kinda the epitome of efficiency :)
beautiful, powerful, and custamizable
This is a really nice terminal host! I really like how easy it is to open up different terminal types in other tabs.
It does tend to act a little bit slow, but it still works well nonetheless.
best terminal as of today
No terminal app had me banned on more servers. infinite hardcore reconnects, little to no info on errors. Sure, if you use powershell or putty this feels like a step forward but even buggy MUONSSH is better than tabby for me.
