Comments and Reviews
Terrific UI. Fast. Lots of features.
Beautiful And Useful
Does a lot of things. But not very well. If you want a terminal simulator as a small feature as part of a bigger program, try VS Code.
cweijan.vscode-ssh was the best ssh client for VS Code, and it has become payware.
4.6.0 2022-2-16 was the last free version, and it has been purged from the Github repository (and version picker inside VS Code).

Pretty. Very fast. Almost a full-featured SSH client.
WindTerm is a combination of remote shell as SSH client, SSH file browser, and plain text editor. It is a little complicated, not so easy to get used.
